Seth Price was born in 1973, in East Jerusalem. He presently lives and works in New York. He graduated in modern culture and media at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, in 1997, where he was a student of experimental film director Leslie Thornton. Before he started working as an artist, he was technical director for distributor Electronic Arts Intermix, between 1998 and 2005. He presently combines his artistic activity with the writing of essays, fiction, poetry and musical creation; he taught in different faculties, among which, the MIT Center for Advanced Visual Studies, Cambridge, Massachusetts; Harvard University and Toronto University.

Price’s multidisciplinary work integrates film, video, photography, painting, sculpture, drawing, music, text, web design, textile and is focused on the vast artistic and social transformations that result from the advent of the digital. He is therefore interested in exploring the unstable and multidimensional nature of image, given its new modes of distribution, circulation and reception, as well as the body and its techno-digital mediations.

His main solo exhibitions include the Kunsthalle Zürich, 2007; Museo d’Arte Moderna di Bologna, 2009; 365 S. Mission Rd, Los Angeles, 2016; Museum Brandhorst, Munich, 2017; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, 2017; Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, 2017; MoMa PS1, New York, 2018 and Aspen Art Museum, 2019. He participated at the Whitney Biennial, 2002 and 2008, Documenta (13), Kassel, 2012 and in numerous group exhibitions at Palais de Tokyo, Paris, 2012; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, 2013; Musée d’Art modern de la Ville de Paris, 2016; Fridericianum, Kassel, 2016; S.M.A.K., Gent, 2018; Museum Brandhorst, Munich, 2019; Haus der Kunst, Munich, 2020, among others.
