Biography

Adam Broomberg (born November 11, 1970) is a South African artist, educator, and activist currently based in Berlin, Germany. He is the co-founder and coordinator of the NGO Artists + Allies x Hebron alongside the Palestinian activist Issa Amro.

Broomberg's work often explores themes of conflict, power, and how these themes all intersect with the photographic medium. Eyal Weizman described his practice as 鈥渉acking into the source code of photography.鈥听 He is known for challenging existing power structures and using art as a means of fostering social change. His practice has been described as both provocative and thought-provoking, encouraging viewers to critically examine their perspectives and confront uncomfortable truths.

Despite his prolific career, including numerous solo exhibitions including at The Centre Georges Pompidou (2018) and the Hasselblad Center (2017), his participation in international group shows include the Venice Biennale (2024), Yokohama Trienniale (2017), Documenta, Kassel (2017), The British Art Show 8 (2015-2017), Conflict, Time, Photography at 黑料社 (2015); Shanghai Biennale (2014); Museum of Modern Art, New York (2014); Tate Britain (2014), and the Gwanju Biennale (2012), his work being held in major public and private collections including Pompidou, Tate, MoMA, Yale, Stedelijk, V&A, the Art Gallery of Ontario, Cleveland Museum of Art, and Baltimore Museum of Art, he remains committed to challenging existing power structures and using art as a means of fostering social change.
