Kim Schoen's work in photography, video installation, and text engages with the rhetoric of display. The blank repetition of consumer culture often collides with literary influences, exploring the malleability of speech, its translation into texts and images and back again.
Current and recent exhibitions include Hawaii (Moskowitz Bayse, Los Angeles (solo)) Ours Is A City of Writers (Barnsdall Art Park, Los Angeles), Fontane Gurgulear (Los Angeles Museum of Art), Have You Never Let Someone Else Be Strong, (MMoCA, (solo), duh? Art & Stupidity (Focal Point Gallery, UK), Komma (Kunstverein Springhornhof, DE), Objective Considerations of Contemporary Phenomena (MOT International, London), and Stupidious (South London Gallery, London).
Her work is included in private and public collections, has been written about in the Los Angeles Times, ArtForum, Mousse, and Art in America, and her own writing on repetition and photography ('The Serial Attitude Redux', 'The Expansion of the Instant: Photography, Anxiety, Infinity') can be found in X-TRA Contemporary Art Quarterly. Kim is also the co-founder, publisher and editor of MATERIAL, a journal of writing by artists.
She lives and works in Berlin and Los Angeles.
