Douglas Ross (b. 1969, Brockton, MA) lives and works in New York City. Through mediums including drawing, photography and moving images, textiles, sculpture, and various machines, Ross’s felt, analytic works are compelled by overdetermined yet contingent conditions of our individual and collective experience, including through forms of spatial and technological mediation. His recent work reflects on our current moment’s convolution and confusion of effects and causes. Solo exhibitions include Daily Practice-Rotterdam, Cathouse Proper, and Mills College Art Museum. Ross has participated in two-person and group exhibitions and screenings at venues including MoMA/PS1, SculptureCenter, Walker Art Center, Bronx Museum, Ballroom Marfa, MOCA Miami Goldman Warehouse, Oakville Galleries, Allen Memorial Art Museum, Rotterdam Film Festival, Netwerk Aalst, Museum Villa Stuck, New Museum, Circulo de Bellas Artes, Queens Museum, Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, The Contemporary Austin—Jones Center, Spelman College Museum of Fine Art, Careof—Milano, Zerynthia/radioartemobile at Tese delle Vergini for Utopia Station—50th Venice Biennale, e–flux video rental, and recently at P•P•O•W Gallery. Ross has received grants and fellowships from the Smithsonian Institution, Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Socrates Sculpture Park, Asian Cultural Council, Nancy Graves Foundation, and PRAx at Oregon State University.
