Rivane Neuenschwander (born 1967) is a Brazilian artist, who has become widely regarded for ephemeral and engaging work that explores language, nature, geography, the passing of time and social interactions. At times her works are interactive involving viewers in spontaneous and participatory actions. In her installations, films and photographs, Rivane Neuenschwander employs fragile unassuming materials to create mesmerising aesthetic experiences, a process she describes as "ethereal materialism". [1] “When I was starting off, I was very interested in the ephemeral, in quotidian materials that disappear or are subject to entropy, which is how my art got stuck with labels like ‘ethereal materialism,’" she says about her own work.[2]
Neuenschwander was born in 1967 in Belo Horizonte, Brasil. She graduated from the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil in 1993 and completed her MFA at the Royal College of Art in London 1998.
Winner of the Yanghyun Prize in South Korea in 2013 and shortlisted for the Guggenheim Museum’s Hugo Boss Prize in 2004, the artist has exhibited her work internationally throughout the past twenty years. In 2010, the New Museum in New York presented Rivane Neuenschwander: A Day Like Any Other, a major survey exhibition that traveled to the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum in St. Louis, followed by the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art in Arizona, Miami Art Museum, and the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin through 2012.
Other important solo presentations include shows at Museu de Arte Moderna de São Paulo (MAM-SP) in Brazil (2014), Malmö Konsthall in Sweden (2010), St. Louis Art Museum in Missouri (2007), Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh (2007) Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC (2007), Palais de Tokyo in Paris (2003), the Walker Arts Center in Minneapolis (2002) and Portikus in Frankfurt (2001).
Rivane Neuenschwander has developed a unique practice within the vein of Brazilian conceptualism, incorporating influences from Brazil's rich history of art movements over the past fifty years. Neuenschwander has become widely regarded for her ephemeral, engaging work that explores narratives about language, nature, geography, the passing of time and social interactions. To do so, the artist frequently employs external forces – both people and natural processes – to produce a series of dynamic, autonomous results. Often her works are interactive, as in Story of an Other (2005), which was created for the 2005 Venice Biennale and shown again in her New York solo début, ‘Other Stories and Stories of Others’.
Currently Neuenschwander’s work can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Tate Modern, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Inhotim Centro de Arte Contemporânea in Brazil, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdamn, The Israel Museum, Museum of Modern Art in Sao Paulo, Seattle Art Museum, and the Walker Art Center, among others.[3][4]
