Biography: 
Jennifer Allora, *1974 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (US), Guillermo Calzadilla,*1971 Havana (CU)
since 1995 Jennifer Allora *1974 (US) and Guillermo Calzadilla *1971 (CU) have been working together since 1995. They live and work in Puerto Rico, a hybrid Caribbean culture with a colonial legacy that continues to flourish in the present day under the fragile auspices of the United States. Despite its tropical location and the abundant natural beauty of the surrounding region, Puerto Rico is an island where heavy industry, commerce and space exploration take precedence. It is this fertile and unusual diversity that informs the subject matter and approach behind Allora and Calzadilia's varied body of work.
Cyclones, chalk cylinders, colour chromatics, computer codes, cosmic communications, colonial crimes, civil disobedience and capturing sunlight have all featured in their work. Their inventive use of materials and strong sense of aesthetic, encompass art historical references and create a new artistic vocabulary within a psychological, political and social context.
Recent exhibitions include 'Ailleurslici' Musee d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris;'Common Wealth'Tate Modern, London;'Puerte, Rican Light'The America's Society, NY; XXIV Sao Paolo Biennale, Brazil; PS1 Contemporary Art Centre, NY. Forthcoming solo exhibitions include ICA, Boston; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (both July 2004)
