About

Eran Schaerf is an artist and writer with an academic background in architecture, urban planning, and photography.

His work has been shown widely in exhibitions such as the 54th Venice Biennale, Venice (2011), Skulptur Projekte Münster, Münster (2007), and Manifesta 2 in Luxemburg (1998). In 2013 Schaerf received the Käthe Kollwitz Prize awarded by the Akademie der Künste, Berlin. Schaerf lives and works in Berlin.
