Jeremy Kibel
Born 1972. Lives and works in Melbourne.

Kibel's ‘Self Portrait’ was a finalist in this year’s Archibald Prize (2012) & reflects his preoccupation with the subject of mortality and demonstrates a self-reflection into the mythical heroic/genius artist of the 20th century.

Born 1972 in Melbourne's Hawthorn, Kibel entered the art scene in 1992 as a studio assistant in New York and later returned to Melbourne in 1994 where he worked for both Robert Jacks and Jenny Watson. In 2006 Kibel co-founded Blockprojects gallery - with humble beginnings in Melbourne's Block Arcade the essentially artist run space has exploded onto the commercial art scene with its all-embracing, eclectic mix of new and established artists.

His role as a curator aside, Kibel has had success with a string of solo exhibitions from 2009 and has featured in numerous group shows in Sydney and Melbourne. Most notably he has been a finalist in the Wynne Prize (2006) and was listed as a finalist in both the 2011 and 2012 Archibald Prize. His work Self Portrait from the 2012 Archibald Prize reflects his preoccupation with the subject of mortality and demonstrates a self-reflection into the mythical heroic/genius artist of the 20th century.
