Angela Bulloch

Angela Bulloch (born 1966 in Rainy River, Ontario, Canada), is a Canadian artist who often works with sound and installation; she is recognised as one of the Young British Artists. Bulloch lives and works in Berlin.

Life and career Bulloch studied at Goldsmiths' College, London (1985–1988). In 1989, she won the Whitechapel Artists' Award.

Bulloch undertook a two-month residency at ARCUS- project in Moriya, Japan in 1994. For the Turner Prize exhibition, Bulloch exhibited her playful artwork called Rules Series.

In 2002, Bulloch was awarded the ASEF (Asia-Europe Foundation) Cultural Grant. In particular, she has used video, animation, sound and light to explore pre-edited systems. Bulloch is recognised for her 'Pixel Boxes' originally constructed using beech wood and a plastic front screen and later with materials such as copper, aluminium or corian. Bulloch has also made a number of works using Belisha beacons, which are more commonly used to illuminate pedestrian crossings. More recently, Bullock's Stacks are unique structures made of compiled rhomboids which play with light and colour to create optical effects. A lot of her light and music works are developed using technology Bulloch has created herself.

Bulloch is a fan of music and performs live. Other museum exhibitions include Kunsthaus Glarus (2001); Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (2003); Le Consortium, Dijon (2005); Modern Art Oxford, Vienna Secession, and The Power Plant, Toronto (2005); and Lenbachhaus, Munich (2008). Her work was also included in notable group exhibitions such as The New Decor at Hayward Gallery, London; Colour Chart: Reinventing Colour 1950 to Today at Tate Liverpool and Museum of Modern Art, New York; and Theanyspacewhatever for which she created an installation for the ceiling of Frank Lloyd Wright's Solomon R.
