Tracey Moffatt is one of today’s leading international visual artists working in photography, film and video. Many of her photographs and short films have achieved iconic status both in her home country of Australia and around the world. Her photographs play with many different printing processes and have a filmic, narrative quality. Moffatt approaches all her photographic and video work as a film director, and she is known as a powerful visual storyteller.

In January 2011, Moffatt will present a solo exhibition at Tyler Rollins Fine Art, featuring her recent photographic series, Plantation, as well as Other, the final work in her video series inspired by Hollywood films.

Born in Brisbane in 1960, Moffatt studied visual communications at the Queensland College of Art, from which she graduated in 1982. Since her first solo exhibition at the Australian Centre for Photography in Sydney in 1989, she has exhibited extensively in museums all over the world. Moffatt first gained significant critical acclaim when her short film, Night Cries, was selected for official competition at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival. Her first feature film, beDevil, was also selected for Cannes in 1993.

Moffatt was selected for the international section of the 1997 Venice Biennale (curated by Germano Celant) and has also featured in the biennials of Sydney, Sao Paulo (1998) and Gwangju (1995). A major exhibition at the Dia Center for the Arts in New York in 1997/98 consolidated her international reputation. In 2003, a large retrospective exhibition of Moffatt’s work was held at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, to record breaking attendances, and in 2004 it traveled to the Hasselblad Museum in Sweden. In 2006, she had her first retrospective exhibition in Italy, at Spazio Oberdan, Milan. In 2007, her photographic series, Scarred For Life, was exhibited at the Guggenheim Museum and her video, LOVE, at the Brooklyn Museum in New York. Also that year, she was awarded the prestigious Infinity award for art photography, selected by an International panel at the International Center of Photography in New York City.
