Clemens Poole

Clemens Poole is an artist and filmmaker based in New York City. His projects and exhibitions have been presented in Kyiv, New York, and Berlin. Since 2014 his practice has been linked closely to the events of the Ukrainian crisis. In collaboration with the internally displaced Ukrainian art foundation IZOLYATSIA he has curated and produced exhibitions including Zahoplennya, a series of public installations in Kyiv and Architecture Ukraine: Beyond the Front, an exhibition at the 2016 Venice Biennial. Recurring themes in his work include questions surrounding the experience of post-Soviet state formation and international recognition. He is currently engaged in the long form video project Starobilsk Portrait, depicting life in Eastern Ukraine in proximity to the de facto border with the separatist territories. He holds a BFA from the Cooper Union and an MA/MSc in international history from Columbia University and the London School of Economics.
