Biography
Santiago Sierra (Madrid, 1966) studied Fine Arts at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and at the University of Fine Arts Hamburg (HFBK) between 1989 and 1991, as well as at the Academia de San Carlos in Mexico City between 1995 and 1997.
Sierra's work attempts to make visible the perversity of the power structures that foster the alienation and exploitation of workers, the injustice of labour relations, the unequal distribution of wealth produced by Capitalism and the perverse nature of work and money, and racial discrimination in a world marked by unidirectional South-North migratory flows.
Recent solo exhibitions include El Bebedero, Prometeo Gallery, Milan, Italy (2016); Laboratorio, Mexico (2015); Helga de Alvear, Madrid, Spain (2016); Kunsthalle Tübingen, Germany (2013); Te Tuhi Centre, New Zealand (2013); Reykjavik Art Museum, Iceland (2012); MARCO, Spain (2009); Museu Madre, Italy (2009); CAC Málaga, Spain (2006), Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, Belgium (2004).
Sierra has also participated in numerous group exhibitions, including the Museum of Modern Art, Poland (2016), the National Art Gallery of Poland (2015), Kunsthalle Düsseldorf (2014), Hamburger Bahnhof - Museum of Contemporary Art, Berlin (2014) and the 55th Venice Biennale. Sierra represented Spain at the 50th Venice Biennale in 2003.
