Biography

Artur Żmijewski creates installations, objects, photographs that explore human behaviour and physicality as a form of social activism. His intellectually reflective approach became the springboard for Czereja, an arts periodical he published in the late 90s and he continues to be art critic. Żmijewski was part of the Polish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2005 and he has received several awards for his work. He was recently appointed curator for the 7th Berlin Biennale which will take place in early 2012.
