过去三十年来,威廉姆·E·琼斯(1962年出生于美国俄亥俄州坎顿)以电影、录像、摄影和艺术家书作为媒介,重新审视了我们现有的文化材料。他的作品多取材于档案图像和文本,但他也会在美国及全世界范围内实地拍摄素材和进行采访。琼斯曾深入调研美国中西部工业城市的衰败;还曾对男同性恋的形象展开研究——素材来源包括东欧色情作品和警察监控录像;他质疑冷战时期军事影像中的视觉致幻效果;也对互联网的随机性和古典哲学之间的诗意关联有着浓厚兴趣。琼斯的作品反映了他对艺术家身份的重新思考,也体现了他对当下社会不重视责任、知识分子参与和人际互动的批判态度。
威廉姆·E·琼斯曾在诸多博物馆和艺术机构举办过个展及回顾展,其中包括:韦克斯纳艺术中心,哥伦布,俄亥俄(2015);圣路易斯艺术博物馆,密苏里州(2013);奥地利电影博物馆,维也纳(2011);纽约Anthology电影档案馆(2010);AR/GE美术馆,博尔扎诺,意大利(2009)。他的作品被纳入以下公共收藏:澳大利亚移动影像中心,墨尔本,澳大利亚;哈默尔艺术博物馆,洛杉矶;洛杉矶艺术博物馆;旧金山现代艺术博物馆;圣路易斯艺术博物馆;泰特现代美术馆等。他参与的重要群展包括:“我们时代的历史”,巴塞尔乡村半州美术馆,巴塞尔,瑞士(2019);“前沿国际:克利夫兰当代艺术三年展”,俄亥俄(2018);“平凡图像”,沃克艺术中心,明尼阿波利斯(2016);2008年和1993年惠特尼双年展,惠特尼美国艺术博物馆,纽约。他的作品被永久收藏于:澳大利亚移动影像中心,墨尔本,澳大利亚;哈默博物馆,洛杉矶;洛杉矶艺术博物馆;旧金山现代艺术博物馆;圣路易斯艺术博物馆;伦敦泰特美术馆等。他最新的小说《我早该知道的》(I Should Have Known Better)于2021年出版。他亦是《True Homosexual Experiences: Boyd McDonald and Straight to Hell》、《Halsted Plays Himself》和《I’m Open to Anything》的作者。琼斯目前在洛杉矶生活和工作。
