Dave Dyment is a Toronto based artist whose work encompasses audio, video, photography, writing, curating and the production of artists’ books and multiples. He has exhibited across the country and was recently included in the Montreal Biennale. Many of his recent projects have been in response to site-specific histories (the Power Plant archives, The Walper Hotel in Kitchener and the Given-Shaw public school archives). In 2008 he was the artist in residence at the Glenfiddich Distilleries in Northern Scotland, where he produced a 100-year barrel of whiskey. His works are held in many private and public collections.
As a curator, he has presented exhibitions at Mercer Union (where he was the director of Programming and Publications), YYZ, the Harbourfront Centre, Art Metropole and, most recently, Edmonton’s inaugural Nuit Blanche, which featured projects by Yoko Ono, Martin Creed, Kelly Mark and others. He is the co-founder (with Roula Partheniou) of The Nothing Else Press, which has produced multiples by David Shrigley, Micah Lexier, Jonathan Monk, Cary Leibowitz, Vanessa Maltese, etc. etc.
