Bill Jones is a photographer, installation artist and performer based in New York. His work is concerned with light as both a physical phenomenon and metaphorical figure. Jones was part of the Vancouver School of conceptual photography, along with such artists as Rodney Graham, Ian Wallace and Jeff Wall. He is married to painter Joy Garnett.
Jones' work has been shown in the United States and elsewhere, including a mid-career retrospective, "Bill Jones: 10 Years of Multiple-Image Narratives," at the International Center of Photography; P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center; Brooklyn Museum; Jewish Museum; Rotunda Gallery; Sandra Gering Gallery; Lombard-Freid Fine Arts; Amy Lipton Gallery; White Columns (all in NY); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; Milwaukee Art Museum; Musée National d'Art Moderne, Paris; Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, UK.
Jones' 2003 exhibition "Nite Nite", at Sandra Gering Gallery with musician collaborator Ben Neill started a new development of MIDI-controlled video, whereby performed elements of sampled video are "played" by both VJ and musician. Their most recent collaborations include Palladio, an interactive, playable movie based on the novel by Jonathan Dee that premiered in Glasgow and New York City at the Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theater in February and March respectively, 2005. Jones' work was also featured in Playvision[1] at the World Financial Center in the Spring of 2006.
