Liz Magor

[4] Alongside Stan Douglas, Brian Jungen, and Jeff Wall, Magor's work and studio practice was featured in the Vancouver episode of season 8 of the PBS broadcast Art21: Art in the Twenty-First Century.

Alongside Ian Carr-Harris, she represented Canada at the XLI Biennale of Venice, Italy, in 1984 in a show organized by Jessica Bradley,[6][7] and she was invited to participate at documenta 8 in Kassel, in 1987.

[14] For example, Magor has created facsimiles of food items and their containers, as well as other objects such as driftwood, logs, tree stumps, and clothing.

[15] A studio- and object-oriented artist, Magor’s work emphasizes process and materiality, and highlights the difference between the real and the simulated.

[16] In previous work, Magor used mold-making and casting techniques to make replicas of coats, trays and cutlery (which she calls "serviceable objects") as receptacles for other materials (such as candies or cigarettes).

Magor’s more recent work involves the repurposing of used clothing and old wool blankets (other types of "serviceable objects").
