이력

Born in 1977 in Derby, United Kingdom, James Ireland lives and works in London. Ireland primarily uses sculpture and installation. His practice is concerned with the ways in which cultural and economic determinants shape our perception of the environment, often employing mirrors and translucent surfaces to literally suggest the notion of a collective screen. Departing from strict self-imposed parameters, Ireland creates minimal pieces that conjure up natural phenomena using an economy of means. His works abstract and reduce the language of natural forms to its simplest expression, manufacturing epic visions of landscape that withhold their inherent promise of the sublime. Ireland's sterile renderings of nature are accompanied by all the lustre and seductiveness of holiday brochures; yet  these paradisiac impressions are anchored down by his precise constructions, which strengthen the work’s play of effect and illusion.

James Ireland has recently presented solo exhibitions and projects at Zabludowicz Collection (2016), Art-O-Rama, Marseille (2008), f a projects, London (2007), the Economist Building, London (2007) and Zoo Art Fair, London (2006). His work has also been shown as part of “Peace and Agriculture in a Pre-Romantic Ideal Landscape, Without Sublime Terrors” at Haunch of Venison, Berlin (2008), “Material Presence: Sculpture and Installation from the Zabludowicz Collection” at 176, London (2008), “Beyond the Country: perspectives of the land in historic and contemporary art” at Lewis Glucksman Gallery, Cork (2007), “Joke, Satire, Irony and Serious Meaning”, European Triennial of Small-Size Sculpture, Gallery of Murska Sobota, Slovenia (2007), “Uncanny Nature” at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne (2006) and “Scape” at CAC (Contemporary Art Centre), Vilnius, Lithuania (2005).
