Jeremy Shaw is a Vancouver artist who graduated from Emily Carr Institute in 1999. His eight-screen video installation DMT premiered at Presentation House Gallery in 2004. Versions of DMT have since been presented at the Lisson Gallery, London; Cherry and Martin Gallery, Los Angeles and the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, Toronto. Shaw’s media works have been included in the group exhibitions “Video Heroes” at Saidye Bronfman Centre, Montreal and “Canada Dreaming” at Kunstverein Wolfsburg, Germany. Shaw is an internationally-renowned electronic musician recording under the name Circlesquare, and is released on London’s Output Recordings. One of Shaw’s primary subjects has been the activities and representations of youth subcultures. This photograph—of a hit of quarter-inch blotter acid—also relates to his ongoing concern with the representation of sublime experience. Premiering at PHG’s fundraising auction, the photograph will be shown next month at Liste 06 at the Basel Art Fair. Jeremy Shaw is represented by Tracey Lawrence Gallery, Vancouver.
