Florence Montmare

Swedish-Greek-American artist Florence Montmare was born in Vienna, Austria, and grew up in Stockholm, Sweden. As an image-maker, Florence Montmare's visual language lies close to the aesthetic of the moving image, with a unique visual language that has a cinematic quality. She creates fragmented stories, played out in a space of silence and interruption. Her work takes the form of photography, video, writing, performance, installation, and books.

Florence Montmare studied photography and graphic design at the School of Visual Arts and the International Center of Photography. She has created exhibitions, books, catalogs, performances, and happenings in New York and Paris. Her work has been published and exhibited in galleries and museums in the USA, Canada, Japan, and all over Europe.
