Camel Collective

Artist Website

Anthony Graves and Carla Herrera-Prats have worked together as Camel Collective since 2010. Camel Collective formed in 2005–6 as a research group at the Whitney Independent Study Program, conducting research on labor, the politics of affect, and the history of artist collectives. Together they think through the contradictions of contemporary labor and the myths of cultural production, and use this investigation to create performance, video, sculpture, and photography. Their narrative works replicate social fields; they examine the contradictions of “immaterial” labor and post-production’s inventory of mechanized effects. Camel Collective has exhibited and performed at museums and galleries including Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico City (2017); REDCAT Gallery, Los Angeles (2015); Trienal de Artes Frestas, Sesc, Sorocaba, Brazil (2015); the Bard Hessel Museum, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York (2014). Camel Collective has also exhibited works at Ulterior Gallery, Black Ball Projects, Artists Space, Art in General, Exit Art, and the Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros, Mexico City.
