Helen Mirra is an American conceptual artist.
Mirra was born in Rochester, New York in 1970. She graduated from Bennington College in 1991, majoring in studio art and contemporary art history and she received her MFA in studio art from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1996. She taught for many years, including as Senior Lecturer in Visual Art and Cinema & Media Studies at the University of Chicago[1] and as Loeb Professor of the Humanities at Harvard University[2].
Mirra participated in the 30th São Paulo Art Biennial and the 50th Venice Biennial. She has had exhibitions at the Berkeley Art Museum, Haus Konstruktiv in Zürich, the Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago, and Kunst-Werke Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin[3].
Mirra's first solo gallery exhibition was in 1999 and included a 16mm silent film, textile works, and the vinyl record Along, Below, all relating to geography.[4] A fifteen-year survey of her work, Edge Habitat, was presented in 2014 at Culturgest in Lisbon, Portugal, and the corresponding publication Edge Habitat Materials was published by WhiteWalls.[5]
She was artist-in-residence at University of California at Berkeley[6], with the DAAD in Berlin[7], and at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum[8].
