Biography
Jenny Marketou born in
Cooper Union School of Art,[3] The New School for Social Research[3][4] and at CALARTS.[5] She has received numerous international residencies, grants, and awards, as well as lectured, exhibited, and curated worldwide.[4]
Artistic career
Marketou's format spans performance, video, photography, interventions and internet projects. Her topics include the body and identity, public space, surveillance and
Banff, where she met various artists associated with the net art movement. These meetings have influenced her work since that date.[2] Streaming Raw includes video streamed in "real time" from two spy cameras in the Twin Towers prior to their destruction.[8] In 2002, she participated in curating the show, "Open_Source_Art_Hack," at the New Museum.[9] Marketou developed an interactive "smell map" that participants could create at the University of Pennsylvania's Science Center's show, "Odor Limits" in 2008.[10] The map was called Smell It: A Do-It-Yourself Smell Map (2008) and it recorded the "shifting of the neighborhood's smellscape from one day to the next."[11]
