معرفی
Edward Bateman is an artist and Associate Professor in the Department of Art & Art History at the University of Utah, where he became the head of the Photography and Digital Imaging area in 2008. His work explores the intersection of photography, printmaking, and 3D modeling to create digital artifacts that challenge perceptions of historical and physical authenticity. Bateman received his MFA from the University of Utah in 2003 and has been recognized with awards such as the Salt Lake City Mayor’s Award (2008), the University of Utah Early Career Teaching Award (2012), and two shortlistings for the Lumen Prize (2014, 2016).
- International exhibitions across 20+ countries
- Works held in prestigious collections including The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Getty Research Institute
His practice merges real and digital elements, producing anachronistic imagery that interrogates the photograph’s role as a witness to reality. Bateman’s 2009 book Mechanical Brides of the Uncanny has been widely collected, and his work will appear in Robert Hirsch’s 2017 Seizing the Light, a key text in photography history.
