Gerard & Kelly is an American duo formed by artists and choreographers Brennan Gerard and Ryan Kelly in 2003. Influenced by minimalist dance,
institutional critique and
queer theory, Gerard & Kelly develop a work at the border of
dance and
contemporary art, which integrates writing, video or sculpture. They were Van Lier Fellows of the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program before attending the Interdisciplinary Studio at UCLA. Gerard & Kelly participated in the 2014 Made in L.A. Biennial and the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial. Their work is included in the collections of Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; LACMA Los Angeles County Museum of Art;
FRAC Franche-Comté, Besançon; and Carré d'Art, Nîmes.
