Maria Marshall Photography

Maria Marshall was born in 1966 in Bombay. She received a BA from the Wimbledon College of Art in London and later studied sculpture at the Chelsea College of Art and Design in London and the École des Beaux-Arts in Geneva, before turning her attention to video. Many of Marshall’s video works have featured children in troubling adult situations. Often, their titles are derived from the utterances of her children. Marshall has had solo exhibitions at the Oliver Art Center at the California College of the Arts in Oakland (2000), Palais de Tokyo in Paris (2002) and Centre pour l’Image Contemporaine in Geneva (2004), among other venues. Her work has been included in several group shows, including “Family” at the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art in Ridgefield, Connecticut (2002), “Casino 2001” at the Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst in Ghent (2001), “Slow Motion” at the Ludwig Forum in Aachen, Germany (2002), “The American Effect” at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York (2003) and “Closed Circuit” at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (2007). Marshall lives and works in London.
