Roddy Hunter (1970, Glasgow) is an artist, educator, writer, and curator, working mainly in performance, conceptual and new media art. Critical themes of recurring interest include mediation, alienation and, more recently, nihilism, especially regarding the relationship between technology and ontology. Recognised internationally as a performance artist since the 1990s, he is best known in Dundee for previous works 'Relief from Law' (2002), a series of guided walks from Magdalen Green to the top of Dundee Law and 'What is Peace (Answer Here)' where he stood in Dundee City Square for 60 minutes each Friday at noon in May 2018 wearing a sandwich board bearing the text, 'What is Peace?' His first performance in Dundee, however, was 'Ablach Action' (1997) in Cooper Gallery, as part of 'The Last Minute' curated by Kevin Henderson. He holds a PhD from DJCAD, University of Dundee, and, having been an art educator for over 25 years, currently works in the School of Fine Art at The Glasgow School of Art.
