Monica Bonvicini is a German-Italian artist who works with installation, sculpture, video, photography and drawing mediums to explore the relationships between architecture and space, power, gender and sexuality. She is considered part of a generation of artists that expanded on the critical practices of the 1960s and 1970s to conceive of space and architecture as a material that could engage with discourses of power and politics, defining art as an active form of ‘critique’. She was awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in 1999 and the Preis der Nationalgalerie from the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin in 2005. She was appointed Commander of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic in 2012.
