ABOUT

ケン・ラムは、1956年生まれ、カナダ、バンクーバーを拠点として国際的に活動しているアーティストです。日常を取り巻く社会構造への批評的な視点とアイロニカルなユーモアを持った作品は、写真、彫刻、ペインティング、インスタレーションと多岐に渡ります。社会における、絶え間ない文化的変容と、その変容によって形作られていくアイデンティティーなどへのラムの興味の対象は、バンクーバーという多くの民族、文化が重なり合う都市で、中国系移民の子として生まれたことと深い関連があります。サインやビルボード、ロゴなどマスメディアにあふれかえる視覚的な言語を用いた作品で読み解こうとする対象は、ますますグローバル化する世界における生活の中での緊張感や矛盾です。そのアプローチは、舌触りのいい文句を解体し、ハイアートと大衆的な趣向の境界をあいまいにさせ、現代社会における文化とはなにかを問い続けます。

ラムはカナダを代表するアーティストとして、ドクメンタ11(2002年)やイスタンブール・ビエンナーレ(2007年)、光州ビエンナーレ(2008年)など多くの国際展に参加しています。また、カナダやヨーロッパにおいて大規模なパブリック・アートも手掛けているほか、キュレーターのオクウィ・エンヴェゾーと共に「The Short Century」展(2001年)のキュレーションも行っています。
