Dora Budor (b. 1984, Croatia) is a New York based artist and writer. Her medium is the exhibition, wherein the characteristics of the given site and context are amplified, dislodged, or re-circuited. Through this set of actions, an interdependency between the work and its host is constructed. Image as a conduit of memory and meaning is produced through the cinematic as it has come to be known not technically, but phenomenologically.

 

Budor’s recent solo exhibitions include Progetto (2021), Kunsthalle Basel (2019), 80WSE (2018), and Swiss Institute (2015). Her work has been presented in numerous group exhibitions, including Migros Museum, Zürich (2021); Schinkel Pavillon, Berlin, (2021); Kunstmuseum Winterthur (2021); MoMA Warsaw (2020); MO.CO Panacée, Montpellier (2020; 2018); Kunstverein Nuernberg (2019), Kunsthalle Biel (2018); Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Denmark, (2017); Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2017); K11 Art Museum, Shanghai (2017); MOCA Belgrade (2017); Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2016); Swiss Institute, New York (2016); Museum Fridericianum, Kassel (2015), Halle für Kunst und Medien, Graz (2015). She participated in 58th October Salon | Belgrade Biennale (2021), 2nd Riga International Biennial of Contemporary Art (2020); Geneva Sculpture Biennale (2020); 16th Istanbul Biennial (2019); 13th Baltic Triennial (2018); Vienna Biennale (2017); Art Encounters (2017) and 9th Berlin Biennial (2016).
