Four Films by Luke Fowler, X Initiative, New York (2009); Kunsthalle Zürich (2008); and he participated in the Yokohama Triennale 2008 with Toshiya Tsunoda.

He is the recipient of the inaugural Derek Jarman Award (2008) and has been shortlisted for the Turner Prize (2012) for his solo exhibition at Inverleith House in Edinburgh, which showcased his film exploring the life and work of Scottish psychiatrist R.D. Laing.
