{"title":"Hannah Collins","description":"\u003cp\u003eHannah Collins (born 1956, London) is a British artist whose practice centres on large-scale photography, film and installation. Working primarily in black and white, Collins produces monumental photographic sequences that extend across walls and multiple panels, examining the relationship between image, scale and material support. Her work engages with questions of memory, labour, landscape and the conditions under which images are produced and encountered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollins studied at the Slade School of Fine Art and has lived and worked in Barcelona since the late 1980s. Her major works of the early 1990s — including \u003cem\u003ePlural\/West\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eEggs for Bread\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRevolving\u003c\/em\u003e and the twenty-eight-panel \u003cem\u003eStonefree\u003c\/em\u003e — were shown internationally and established her reputation as one of the most significant photographers working at the intersection of documentary and conceptual practice. In 1993 she was nominated for the Turner Prize.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer exhibition at The Power Plant, Toronto, in 1992 — \u003cem\u003eRegeneration\u003c\/em\u003e, curated by Richard Rhodes alongside Mike and Doug Starn — placed her monumental photographic sequences in dialogue with the Starns’ three-dimensional photographic assemblages, foregrounding the physical and material dimensions of photographic work. Collins has exhibited widely at institutions including the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, and her work is held in major public and private collections internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hannah-collins-mike-doug-starn-regeneration-power-plant-1992","title":"HANNAH COLLINS \/ MIKE AND DOUG STARN — Regeneration.
