Edmund de Waal
Edmund de Waal is an artist who writes. Much of his work is about the contingency of memory: bringing particular histories of loss and exile into renewed life. This has been materialized in exhibitions worldwide, including at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam; the British Museum, London; the Frick Collection, New York; and the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna. De Waal is also renowned for his bestselling family memoir, The Hare with Amber Eyes (2010), as well as The White Road (2015) and Letters to Camondo (2021).
