Info: Charles Stankievech is an artist redefining fieldwork at the convergence of geopolitics, deep ecologies, and sonic resonances. From the Arctic’s northernmost settlement to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, Stankievech’s practice uncovers the paradoxes of our existence on the planet by engaging with the imperceptible. His diverse body of work has been shown internationally at institutions including the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Copenhagen; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin; National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa; Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary, Vienna; MASS MoCA; Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal; Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal; and several biennials from Venice to SITE Santa Fe.. He’s lectured at dOCUMENTA (13) and the 8th Berlin Biennale and his writing has been published by MIT Press, Sternberg, e-flux, Verso, and Princeton Architectural Press. (…)
