Kim Schoen's work in video installation, photography, and text engages the rhetoric of display. Her absurdist, experimental approach takes on objects and language that try to persuade or convince us of something, using them as raw materials to say something new. Schoen has exhibited her work at MMoCA; Moskowitz Bayse, Los Angeles; Museo di Arte Contemporanea di Roma; BAM; South London Gallery, Whitechapel Gallery, MOT International, London; Kunstverein Springhornhof; Kleine Humboldt Galerie, Berlin; and Young Projects and Richard Telles Fine Art, in Los Angeles. Her work is included in private and public collections, and has been written about in Artforum, Mousse, Art in America, The Los Angeles Times, and Hotshoe International. Her own writing ('Cracking Walnuts: Nonsense and Repetition in Video Art', '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.
