Hans Ulrich Obrist

    1 januari 1968

    Hans Ulrich Obrist is een vooraanstaand curator en kunsttheoreticus, gevierd om zijn diepgaande betrokkenheid bij kunst en zijn meedogenloze exploratie van het creatieve proces. Zijn werk wordt gekenmerkt door een sterke toewijding aan dialoog met kunstenaars en een streven om diverse artistieke disciplines te verbinden. Obrist is een pionier in grootschalige publieke evenementen en tentoonstellingen die conventionele formats uitdagen, en nodigt het publiek uit tot actieve kunstervaringen. Zijn invloed reikt veel verder dan de muren van galerieën, en vormt actief het hedendaagse kunstlandschap door zijn publicaties en interdisciplinaire projecten.
