Jillian Mcdonald:
Jillian Mcdonald is a Canadian
artist, transplanted in Brooklyn.
Her conscious exhibition strategies engage an audience comprised of a
very general public that is not necessarily expecting art or gathered
in established arts venues - interrupting the flow of everyday public
exchange, inviting strangers into momentary relationships. She creates
websites that infiltrate and participate in online fan culture,
reinvents narrative from popular films, offers advice to strangers from
storefronts, and finds reasons to enter into the homes of strangers.
Sylvie Fortin (Art Papers magazine, Sept / Oct 2005) writes of her
practice, "relationships are her medium, fleeting encounters her
material".
Mcdonald's work has been shown
recently at The Whitney Museum's
Artport; Year Zero One in Toronto; Manifestation d'Art Internationale
de Québec; 404 International Festival of Electronic Art in
Argentina; BananaRAM in Italy; The Sundance Online Film Festival in
Park City, Utah; The Cleveland International Performance Art Festival;
La Biennale de Montréal; ISEA 2004 in Talinn, Estonia; and the
Centre d’Art Contemporain de Basse-Normandie in France. Solo and
2-person shows in 2004-5 included Video Pool in Winnipeg, Edge Media in
St John's Newfoundland, TPW in Toronto (presented at The Drake Hotel),
YYZ in Toronto, and vertexList in Brooklyn (with Scot Kaplan). She has
received grants from The Canada Council for the Arts, Soil New Media,
Turbulence, The Gunk Foundation, NYSCA, and The Experimental Television
Center.
"Imagine the Electricity when we
Meet" - Portrait of Billy Bob
Caressed, Slowly is part of an ongoing project, "Me and Billy Bob" in
which the artist imagines a romantic relationship with actor Billy Bob
Thornton. Through video, photographs, drawings, tattoos, a website, and
music, she playfully pursues the object of her affection.
Recent press coverage
"Her climb to cultdom began in 2003 with a series of videos and
performances derived from her purported passion for Billy Bob Thornton
that have been shown widely at small galleries and nonprofits around
the world; her spoof fan site, meandbillybob.com, is linked to by
countless blogs," writes the New
York Times on July 30, 2006.
