Born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1953, Marlene Dumas moved to Amsterdam in 1976, where she has lived and worked since.
Dumas is widely regarded as one of the most influential painters working today. Over the past four decades, she has continuously probed the complexities of identity and representation in her work. Her paintings and drawings, often devoted to depictions of the human form, are typically culled from a vast archive of images collected by the artist, including art historical materials, mass media sources, and personal snapshots of friends and family. Gestural, fluid, and frequently spectral, Dumas\u2019s works reframe and re-contextualize her subjects, exploring the ambiguous and shifting boundaries between public and private selves.
In 2008, a critically acclaimed retrospective, Marlene Dumas: Measuring Your Own Grave, was organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in association with The Museum of Modern Art, New York, which also toured to The Menil Collection, Houston, in 2009. In 2014, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam presented a major retrospective of the artist\u2019s work, Marlene Dumas: The Image as Burden, which traveled to Tate Modern, London, and the Fondation Beyeler, Basel, in 2015.
Additional solo exhibitions of the artist\u2019s work have taken place at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston (2001); Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (2001; traveled to New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York; De Pont Museum of Contemporary Art, Tilburg, The Netherlands, both 2002); Art Institute of Chicago (2003); Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (2007; traveled to Marugame Genichiro-Inokuma Museum of Contemporary Art, Marugame, Japan); Iziko South African National Gallery, Cape Town (2007; traveled to Standard Bank Gallery, Johannesburg, 2008); Museum Kunstpalast, Düsseldorf (2008); and the Fondazione Stelline, Milan (2012).
In 2017, Dumas presented an altarpiece made in collaboration with Jan Andriesse and Bert Boogaard as a permanent installation at the Annenkirche (St. Anne\u2019s Church) in Dresden. Also opening in Dresden in October of that year, the Albertinum and Kupferstich-Kabinett, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden hosted concurrent solo exhibitions. In 2018, the artist curated an exhibition of her work alongside that of Edvard Munch and at the Munchmuseet, Oslo, entitled Moonrise. Marlene Dumas & Edvard Munch.
Dumas has been the recipient of notable awards including the Düsseldorf Art Prize (2007); Rolf Schock Prize in the Visual Arts (2011); the Johannes Vermeer Award (2012); and Verleihung des Hans Theo Richter-Preises für Zeichnung und Graphik (The Hans Theo Richter Prize for Drawing and Graphic Art), Sächsische Akademie der Künste, Dresden (2017).
Work by the artist is represented in museum collections worldwide, including the Art Institute of Chicago; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Fondation Beyeler, Basel; Gemeentemuseum, The Hague; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo; Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; and Tate Gallery, London.
