Teresa Hubbard and Alexander Birchler

Teresa Hubbard and Alexander Birchler have been working collaboratively in video, photography and sculpture since 1990. They began collaborating as artists-in-residence at the Banff Centre for the Arts and later completed graduate degrees at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in Halifax, Canada. Their work invites suggestive, open-ended reflections on place and cinema and is "propelled by the artists' fascination with the open circuits of social life, memory, and history that sit just outside the frame of moving images." Interweaving hybrid forms of storytelling, their work explores "the ways film's past-tense fictions permeate real geographies in the present."

Their exhibition history includes venues such as the Venice Biennial, the Tate Museum Liverpool, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York;, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Reina Sofia Museum, Madrid, Kunsthaus Graz, Mori Museum, Tokyo, Museum für Gegenwart, Berlin and the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin. Their exhibitions are regularly reviewed in the New York Times, ArtForum International, Art in America, Frieze, Parkett and has been prominently featured on the PBS series, Art 21-Art in the 21st Century, an educational archive, resource and history of contemporary art that is broadcast in over 50 countries. Hubbard and Birchler are Graduate Faculty members at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts, Bard College, New York.
