Installation Artist ~ Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Jayce Salloum works within and between the very personal and the trans-national. His work aligns itself with social and political struggles through an intimate subjectivity and discursive challenge. He has worked in installation, photography, video, text and performance since 1975. He has also curated exhibitions, conducted workshops and coordinated cultural projects. As a media arts philosopher and cultural activist, his work critically engages itself in the perception of social manifestations and political realities.
 
Salloum has lectured worldwide and has exhibited at the widest range of local and international venues possible, from the smallest storefronts and community centres to institutions such as The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the National Gallery of Canada; Kunstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Rotterdam International Film Festival; CaixaForum, Barcelona; the 8th Havana Biennial and the 7th Sharjah Biennial. His texts have appeared in many journals including Third Text, Documents, Framework, Fuse, Felix, Public, Pubic Culture and Semiotext(e). His most recent essay, "sans titre /untitled: the video installation as an active archive" is forthcoming in Projecting Migration: Transcultural Documentary Practice. In 2006 his work will be featured in the 15th Biennale Of Sydney and in a solo installation at the Museum Villa Stuck, Munich.
