Introduction
Suzanne Treister (born 1958) is a British artist. Often spanning several years, her projects comprise fantastic reinterpretations of given taxonomies and histories that examine the existence of covert, unseen forces at work in the world, whether corporate, military or paranormal.
Treister studied at Saint Martin's School of Art in London from 1978 to 1981 and then at Chelsea College of Art and Design in 1981–1982.
In 1995 she created an alter ego, Rosalind Brodsky, a time travelling researcher from the Institute of Militronics and Advanced Time Interventionality.
Treister's exhibition "Hexen 2.0" was shown at PPOW in Chelsea, New York, in early 2013.
Treister’s work is held in private and public collections including Tate Britain; Science Museum, London; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Muzeum Sztuki, Łódź, Poland and Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary, Vienna.
