Synopsis
Turner Prize winner Mark Wallinger is one of Britain's most intellectually curious, socially committed and unpredictable artists. He is known for work that formally and conceptually negotiates seemingly opposed elements, like "Sleeper" (2004), in which he spent nine nights in Berlin's Neue Nationalgalerie in a bear costume. For his contribution to the Hayward Gallery's series of artist-curated projects, Wallinger explores the notion of liminality--an intermediate or transitional condition--which is illustrated through the thresholds and borders, simulacra and mirror images found in the work of William Blake, Vija Celmins, Tacita Dean, Thomas Demand, Albrecht Dürer, Bruce Nauman, Guiseppe Penone and Fred Sandback.

Synopsis
Turner Prize-winner Mark Wallinger is one of Britain's most intellectually curious, socially committed and unpredictable artists. His work often dwells on the interface between two realms. For this, the latest in the Hayward's acclaimed series of artist-curated projects, he explores variations on the notion of the liminal, a concept with physical, political, metaphysical meanings. Lines and borders, thresholds, pairings and contraries, simulacra and mirror images figure in an eclectic range of historical and contemporary works by artists including William Blake, Vija Celmins, Tacita Dean, Thomas Demand, Albrecht Durer, Bruce Nauman, Guiseppe Penone and Fred Sandback.
About the Author
Mark Wallinger was born in Chigwell in 1959. He lives and works in London. He studied at Chelsea School of Art, London (1978-81) and Goldsmiths' College, London (1983-85). Since the mid-1980s Wallinger's primary concern has been to establish a valid critical approach to the 'politics of representation and the representation of politics' and has often explored issues of the responsibilities of individuals and those of society in his work. He was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 1995, represented Britain at the 49th Venice Biennale in 2001, and won the 2007 Turner Prize.
