Carol Bove (born 1971, Geneva; raised in Berkeley, California) is a Brooklyn-based artist whose practice combines sculpture and conceptual assemblage to explore material culture, modernist form, and social history. Educated at New York University (BS, 2000), Bove draws on formative encounters with public art and an ongoing interest in the late 1960s and early 1970s, incorporating period-specific objects into carefully structured installations that evoke anthropological display. Her works create interconnected environments balancing bohemian sensibility with minimalist abstraction, from room-scale assemblages such as The Foamy Saliva of a Horse (2011) to public commissions like Caterpillar (2013) for the High Line. Bove has presented numerous solo exhibitions internationally and participated in major group exhibitions, including the Venice Biennale, Documenta, MoMA, Tate Modern, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
