Armin Linke with Giulia Bruno
Screenings
Deutsche Messe

Armin Linke is a photographer and filmmaker (born 1966 in Milan, lives and works in Berlin) whose work is dedicated to investigating how humans use technologies and knowledge to transform and develop our natural, technological and urban environment.

Through working with his own archive, as well as with other media archives, Linke challenges the conventions of photographic practice, whereby the questions of how photography is installed and displayed become increasingly important. In a collective approach with artists, designers, architects, historians and curators, narratives are procured on the level of multiple discourses.

In the last five years, his work has focused particularly on the topic of the Anthropocene, and most recently on exploring ecological and political challenges facing the oceans.
He was Research Affiliate at MIT Visual Arts Program Cambridge, guest professor at the IUAV Arts and Design University in Venice and professor for photography at the University for Arts and Design Karlsruhe.

Armin Linke’s work has been exhibited internationally including Centre Pompidou, Paris; Tate Gallery, London; Fotomuseum, Winterthur; PAC, Milan; Ludwig Forum, Aachen; Centre de la Photographie Genève.
