Biographie
Australie , 1962 -
Depuis plus de deux décennies, l'artiste française australienne Vee Speers s'est imposée dans le monde de l'art avec ses portraits. Ses portraits soigneusement chorégraphiés sont picturaux et aériens, avec une ambiguïté visuelle et métaphorique qui défie les récits établis. Le travail de Vee Speers a été exposé dans des musées, des galeries, des foires d’art et des festivals du monde entier, et a été publié dans des longs métrages et son travail a fait les couvertures de plus de 60 magazines internationaux et a fait l'objet de 3 monographies - épuisées. Ses photographies ont été acquises par Sir Elton John Collection, Michael Wilson Collection, Hoffman Collection US, Carter Potash Collection, Morten Viskum Collection, Alan Siegel, Lawrence Schiller, DZ Bank, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Museum 21C, Kentucky, George Eastman House , Beth Rudin Dewoody, Fonds d'art de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson, CB Collection, Tokyo.
