	Jeremy Deller - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jeremy Deller (born 1966) is an English artist.
		Deller is best-known for his Battle of Orgreave (2001), a recreation of the actual Battle of Orgreave which occurred during the UK miners' strike in 1984.
		Deller was winner of the Turner Prize in 2004 for his installation Memory Bucket (2003), a documentary about Crawford, Texas – the hometown of George W Bush – and the siege in nearby Waco.

	ARTANGEL PAST
		Jeremy Deller's The Battle of Orgreave was a spectacular re-enactment of what happened on that day, orchestrated by Howard Giles, historical re-enactment expert and former director of English Heritage's event programme.
		Deller and artist Alan Kane have recently initiated Folk Archive, an ongoing project that aims to investigate the state of contemporary folk art in the United Kingdom.
		Jeremy Deller has exhibited throughout Europe and America and publications include ‘Life is to Blame for Everything’, (Salon3/Arts Council, 2001), ‘A True Revolutionary is Motivated by Great Feelings of Love’ (CVA Cardiff, 2000) and ‘The Uses of Literacy’ (Book Works, 1999).

	Site-specific art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A good recent example of this process is British artist Jeremy Deller's 'The Battle of Orgreave' (2003), a site-specific re-enactment of the clash between picketing miners of the NUM and riot police outside the BSC coking plant at Orgreave, South Yorkshire, on 18 June 1984.
		Deller's representation is well meant, and by involving the miners who had initially participated in the strike, he does alleviate some of the familiar problems of 'high culture' representations of working-class people and realities.
		Deller's position as conceptual author and the marketing of the film through art and media channels privileges his position over the participants', despite his objections.

		Deller settled down to watch the film in a slightly damp room in a converted mews house, and he soon saw himself explaining that he had spent $2,000 on five acres of desert near Death Valley.
		Deller is not overly concerned with these things, justifying his work in terms of the pleasure it brings and the discussion it provokes.
		Deller worked with his friend Alan Kane and Peter Stringfellow to create the Butterfly Ball, the world's most expensive cocktail, a large silver bowl of fruit, mixers and spirits that cost £250 and was enjoyed by many people in unison sucking on straws to the soundtrack of Carmina Burana.

	Carnegie International - Artist Bio
		Jeremy Deller conceived Breaking News (Dedicated to Peter Watkins) specifically for Carnegie Museum of Art's miniature rooms.
		Peter Watkins is an influential but lesser-known British filmmaker whose films on the subjects of war, politics, and art are exemplary of so-called "documentary reconstruction," in which staged footage of historical events is interposed with interviews of witnesses to those events.
		A second work by Deller is an untitled series of t-shirts and plastic bags, each printed with a quote from the Old or the New Testament.

	Stedelijk Museum
		Jeremy Dellers 'The Battle of Orgreave' will be shown on November 18 as part of SMCS on 11 in Stedelijk Museum CS.
		Deller maintained that his interest was less in the actual re-enactment than in bringing about a long-overdue dialogue about the original event.
		Jeremy Deller (1996) is nominated for the prestigious Turner Prize 2004.

	San Antonio Current - Visual Arts:Private Texas
		Deller is Britain's art darling of the moment, lauded by most of the island's press for his happenings, which often take the form of commemorating an element of populist culture.
		But Kanjo places Deller in an international trend of humanizing contentious political and social issues, a theme that was certainly prevalent at the Turner Prize exhibition.
		Kanjo observes that when Deller studied art history, he was particulary interested in the baroque period, because as a Counter-Reformation aesthetic, it's role was to reach ordinary people with opulence and bring them back into the fold of the church.

		Jeremy is into Folk Art, or as he has put it before, "Unpretenticious creativity" (which kinda describes what he thinks of Tracey Emin then), and is very much a curator of things he finds and likes.
		I first met Jeremy in 1999, whilst myself and the mysterious Steve B were doing all the ground work for the Manics fan convention that year.
		Jeremy is a fan, and a fan of the fans, and previously published a book of artwork inspired by the Manics, by their fans.

		Deller turned up the volume of his huge amp--the source of the really cool sounds--above which, on the wall, was the instruction "Let Them Eat Bass," and put the kettle on for a cup of tea.
		Back in "Jeremy's Room," Deller--temporarily leaving his parents' house--set up home in Cabinet, complete with the comforts of TV and VCR, his record collection encased in an old Red Cross box, a carpet, a poster of Kate Moss, photos of a few good nights out with friends and the Union Jack bed.
		A friendly fanatic, Deller reversed a popular culture (and art is part of that) which is so familiar and so shared, it can be shocking when you find that it's actually so different.

		What's special about Deller's approach is its performative aspect (who could watch Orgreave without wondering what memories are hurtling through the ex-miners' heads?) and the way in which his art folds back into its subject matter.
		Deller set up a digital studio at the pavilion (equipped with a sampler and a sequencer) and invited Bexhill's retired residents to try out the technology.
		For Deller buying the land was 'an act in which the freedom you have as an artist, and the freedom you have being in [America] happily coincided'.

		The passion behind Deller's wide-ranging interests is evident to anyone who meets him, says Andy Gillooly, assistant manager of the Williams Fairey works brass band at the time of the acid brass collaboration.
		Deller insists that participants are always in on the joke: aware of his work's absurdity as well as its seriousness.
		Above all, Deller embraces complexity and is fascinated by connections; a sprawling diagram across one wall of the Tate show relates acid house and brass bands via points including "melancholy", "808 State", "media hysteria", "civic pride", "Ibiza" and "advanced capitalism".

		Deller, surprisingly made the bookies' favourite in the circumstances, emerged from a shortlist dominated by video and film artists who were attacked by critics for making boring, trite political statements.
		In the end, they decided to praise Deller for "generosity of spirit across a succession of projects which engage with social and cultural contacts and celebrate the creativity of individuals".

		There's no ocean view, however; Deller's homestead is a barren slice of the Mojave Desert.

		The thing that drew Jeremy Deller to re-enactment was its status as a type of folk art.
		In 1999, London-based Deller worked with fellow artist Alan Kane to set up the Folk Archive, an ongoing collection of everything from handicrafts acquired at village fêtes to photographs of outlandish hairdos.
		Deller concurs on this issue, drawing parallels between the sense of unity he felt amongst re-enactors with that seen amongst miners in the pits and social clubs.
