Jill Magid

American artist Jill Magid forms intimate relationships with systems of power—from police, military, and corporate organizations to CCTV surveillance technology. For Magid, power is not a remote condition to contest, but rather something to infiltrate and manipulate: drawing it closer, exploiting its loopholes, engaging it in dialogue, repeating its logic.

Magid’s work has been featured in solo exhibitions at institutions around the world, including the Tate Modern, London; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and the Stedelijk Museum Bureau Amsterdam, and her works are included in the collections of the Whitney, Fundación Jumex Arte Contemporáneo, and the Walker Art Center, among others. Hear from this invigorating artist working at the intersection of politics and art.
