Carol Bove

1971

CAROL BOVE was born in 1971 in Geneva, Switzerland, raised in Berkeley, California, and studied at New York University. Bove’s work has been included in many international exhibitions, most recently dOCUMENTA (13) in 2012 in Kassel, the 54th Venice Biennale in 2011, and the Whitney Biennial 2008, New York. In 2013, Bove exhibited in venues across New York. For High Line Art, Bove created Caterpillar, a series of large-scale sculptures that occupied a disused stretch of the Manhattan railroad yards, and the Museum of Modern Art presented Carol Bove: The Equinox, an arrangement of seven sculptures. The same year, Maccarone Gallery presented Bove’s solo exhibition RA, or Why is an orange like a bell? alongside Qor Corporation: Lionel Ziprin, Harry Smith and the Inner Language of Laminates, a group exhibition the artist co-curated with Phillip Smith focusing on the recently discovered artwork and materials from the Lionel Ziprin archive.

Bove has exhibited at Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2010), Horticultural Society of New York (2009), Blanton Museum of Art, Austin, Texas (2006), Kunsthalle Zürich, Institute of Contemporary Art Boston (both 2004) and Kunstverein Hamburg (2003). Carol Bove lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
