Hardback, 217x280mm, 200p, English edition . ISBN 9783869304908. Eija-Liisa Ahtila is one of the most accomplished and recognised contemporary Nordic artists working today, and Parallel Worlds presents her most recent bodies of work. Ahtila has been an indefatigable pioneer of multi-media art since her video and performance breakthrough in the 1990s, and her influential position in cinema was cemented in 2011 when she was appointed to the feature films jury of the Venice Film Festival. Parallel Worlds shows Ahtilas ongoing interest in the experience of being human, her complex narratives incorporating art historical and literary references, her adaption of commercial and documentary filmic styles, as well as her current interest in bio-politics and post-humanism. Eija-Liisa Ahtila was born in Hameenlinna, Finland in 1959, and today lives and works in Helsinki. Ahtila has received numerous grants and awards including the Edstrand Foundation Art Prize, the Artes Mundi Prize and a DAAD Fellowship. Her work has been shown at many institutions including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Jeu de Paume in Paris, and Tate Modern in London. 0 g. Seller Inventory # 38688
