Her work has been exhibited extensively throughout Europe and the Americas, including at the Sao Paolo Biennial (1996 and 2006), the Venice Biennial (2003), and Manifesta 3 (2000). She has had solo exhibitions at the Barbican Arts Center (London, 2007) the Guggenheim Museum (New York, 2001), Galerie Nordenhake (Berlin, 2003 and 2007), PBICA (Lake Worth, Florida, 2003), the List Visual Arts Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2004), and at the De Appel Foundation for Contemporary Art (Amsterdam, 2004). Her many on-site installations include Dry Toilet (Caracas, 2003), Balcony with Wind Turbine (the Liverpool Biennial, 2004) and Genesis (2005), which is on permanent display at the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo. Potr has published a number of essays on contemporary urban architecture. In 2005, she was a visiting professor at the Center for Advanced Visual Studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She has been the recipient of numerous grants and awards, most notably the prestigious Hugo Boss Prize (2000) and more recently an IASPIS artist residency in Stockholm, Sweden (2006).
