About
Before he became an internationally acclaimed contemporary artist, Shaun Gladwell was a talented skateboarder. Gladwell pursued a career in art instead of skateboarding but later incorporated both interests in compelling video works, such as Storm sequence 2000 and Guide to recent architecture: fountains 2000-2007, which explore the body in motion within urban space and the built environment. Gladwell’s traversing of these spaces encodes alternate uses to the functional purpose and sanctioned design of public architecture.
