About

Jim Whiting (born Paris 1951) is an artist, inventor and maker of mechanical theater. He builds monumental, kinetic installations and exhibitions where animated figures and robots take the role of host, acrobat and performer in a turbulent, fairy-tale fantasy world. Whiting’s first major installation was in 1979 at The Hayward Gallery in London.
He received international recognition in 1984 after his robot-like sculptures were featured dancing in Herbie Hancock's music video for "Rockit"
directed by duo Godley & Creme, winning the first MTV Video Music Award for Best Art Direction.
