“I WOULD LOVE IF YOU WENT TO A PIECE OF VIDEO ART AND GOT EMOTIONALLY INVOLVED THE WAY YOU DO AT THE MOVIES.”

She was educated at Robert College of Istanbul, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand and Bennington College. She resides in Brooklyn, New York, where her company, the Rufus Corporation is based; however, she continuously visits cultural centers around the world, where her exhibitions take place.

In 2005 Eve Sussman & The Rufus Corporation has become famous with the outstanding video art works "89 seconds at Alcázar" - a tribute to painter Diego Velazquez’s Las Meninas - and "The Rape of the Sabine Women", which is inspired by Jacques-Louis David’s painting, the Intervention of the Sabine Women. Her interests are more cinematic, and she gets her inspiration from the history of film.
