Adad Hannah - Visual Arts // RAEV's "Recognizing Artists: Enfin Visibles!" Project

Born in New York and raised variously in Israel, England, and Vancouver, for the last nine years multi-media artist Adad Hannah has lived in Montreal, where he has pushed open the borders between the body and installation art by fusing the two in thoroughly evocative ways. Hannah combines video, photography and performance into tableaux vivants. A multi-faceted exchange between art and history, Hannah uses the space between the static body and the recorded motion to make statements on the tension of our bodies' natural dichotomies. Young and prolific, in any given year his installations can be found around the world, living in galleries as far and wide as Berlin, New York, Seoul, or Australia. In 2003, he received an Honourable Mention at the 10th International Media Arts Biennale. In 2009, he won the Canada Council's prestigious Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award for outstanding artistic achievement by a Canadian artist in mid-career. (DN)
