Torbjørn Rødland

Torbjørn Rødland was recently the subject of the solo exhibition The Touch That Made You, Serpentine Sackler Gallery, London; Fondazione Prada, Milan (2017);  Fifth Honeymoon, Kunsthall Bergen, Norway (2018). Recent group exhibitions include What People Do for Money, Manifesta 11, The European Biennial of Contemporary Art, Luma Westbau, Zürich (2016); LIT, 9th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art, Akademie der Künste, Berlin (2016). Wanting to push forward the artistic boundaries of his medium, Rødland has re-conceptualized and integrated aesthetic qualities dismissed in postmodern photography. Between 2004 and 2007 he produced six video works. One of these, titled 132 BPM, was exhibited solo at MoMA PS1, Long Island City (2006), and at the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art, Hiroshima (2010). In 2016, Rødland presented the public installation Blue Portrait (Nokia N82) in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.
