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.
