About Dean Baldwin

Dean Baldwin constructs temporary large-scale architectural structures as social immersive environments within which he performs the role of host, often sharing food and alcohol with the public. These performative hybrid spaces subvert the traditional conventions of museum and gallery spaces and blur the borders between performance, social practice, participatory art, and community organization. Baldwin holds a BFA from York University, Toronto and an MFA from Concordia University, Montréal. He currently lives and works in Montréal.
