1960, Salzbourg. Vit et travaille à Bruxelles
Aglaia Konrad (born 1960 in Salzburg, lives in Brussels) has developed a distinct manner of photography since the 1970s that documents the rapidly advancing process of global urbanisation. Her archive, which encompasses several thousand images of urban infrastructures and housing architectures, offers an unlimited repository that sheds a unique light on the relationship between society and space. The artist rearranges her works for each new exhibition and book project. Aglaia Konrad became well-known by her participation in the documenta X as well as her involvement in an array of meaningful exhibtions dealing with the city as a theme: “Cities on the Move”, 1998 and 1999 in Bordeaux, New York, London, Helsinki, and Vienna, “Metro>Polis”, Brussels 2000, Shanghai Biennale 2000, “Future Cities” in Canada 2004, “KOPIE CITY” in the Kunsthaus Graz 2004, “Spectacular City. Photographing the Future” in NAI - Nederlands Architectuur Instituut Rotterdam / Artforum North Rhein-Westphalia, Düsseldorf, 2006 / 2007. In 1997 the artist was awarded the Otto Mauer Prize of Vienna, in 2003 the Camera Austria Prize of Graz, and in 2007 the Albert-Renger-Patzsch-Prize of the Dietrich Oppenberg Foundation and Photography Collection.
