Marc Camille Chaimowicz

Marc Camille Chaimowicz established himself in the 1970s with his evocative installations and performances. His installations have often included the artist’s photographs and his prototypes for fabrics, wallpaper and ceramics, as well as found objects and artworks by others. His work combines a sensitivity to the personal and the everyday with a highly developed sense of theatre and lifestyle.

Chaimowicz was born in post-war Paris and lives and works in London. The artist is currently exhibiting at Artists Space in New York and has a major solo show opening at Secession, Vienna in November 2009. Marc Camille Chaimowicz showed in the ICA exhibition The Secret Public in 2007.
