}}Martine Syms (born 1988) is an American artist based in Los Angeles who works in publishing, video, and performance. In 2007, she coined the term "conceptual entrepreneur" to characterize her practice.[1] Her self-identified title sustains one of her main ideas: self-determination through a sustainable institution, which stems from her interest in independent music and black-owned businesses.[2][3] Her artwork has been exhibited and screened at venues including Human Resources, Bridget Donahue Gallery, the New Museum, Kunsthalle Bern, The Studio Museum in Harlem, Index Stockholm, MOCA Los Angeles, and MCA Chicago.[4][5] Syms teaches at the California Institute of the Arts.[6]

Life

In 2007, Syms received a BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) in Film, Video, and New Media at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In 2009, Syms graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.[7] From 2007-2011 Syms ran Golden Age, an artist-run space in Chicago. Her work often explores contemporary black identity, queer theory, and the power of language through video, performance, writing and other media.[8] Syms is the founder of Dominica Publishing, an artists' press dedicated to exploring blackness in contemporary art and visual culture.[9]

In 2011, Syms published "Implications and Distinctions,"[10] an exploration of the performance of blackness in contemporary cinema, as part of the Future Plan and Program project created by Steffani Jemison.[11]

In 2013, Syms published “The Mundane Afrofuturist Manifesto” through Rhizome.[12] In her manifesto Syms calls for black diasporic artistic producers to create culture that focuses on a more realistic future on earth. Syms writes:

"The imaginative challenge that awaits any Mundane Afrofuturist author who accepts that this is it: Earth is all we have. What will we do with it? The chastening but hopefully enlivening effect of imagining a world without fantasy bolt-holes: no portals to the Egyptian kingdoms, no deep dives to Drexciya, no flying Africans to whisk us off to the Promised Land...The understanding that our "twoness" is inherently contemporary, even futuristic. DuBois asks how it feels to be a problem. Ol’ Dirty Bastard says "If I got a problem, a problem's got a problem 'til it’s gone."[13]
In 2014, Syms released Most Days, which consisted of table read of Syms screenplay about an average day looks like for a young black woman in 2050 Los Angeles. The score for the album was composed by Neal Reinalda.[14]

In 2015, Syms was included in the New Museum Triennial Surround Audience.[15] Her 2015 video Notes on Gesture, exhibited at Bridget Donahue Gallery in New York City and the Machine Project in Los Angeles, explores the role of seemingly insignificant bodily gestures in the creation of identity.[16]

In 2016, Syms presented the performance "Misdirected Kiss" at the Storm King Art Center in New York's Hudson Valley, and the Broad Museum in Los Angeles. The work takes the title from the 1904 film "The Misdirected Kiss". At times resembling a TED talk, the work picks apart issues of language and representation.[17][18]

Syms is the recipient of the 2017 Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation grant[19] and is a 2018 Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts fellow.[20] She obtained a MFA (Master of Fine Arts) from Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY in 2017.
