Matthew Burbidge

Matthew Burbidge (born 1970, Cukfield, England), after studying philosophy, studied art in London at Central Saint Martins and Chelsea College of Art and Design. From the outset, he produced unclassifiable works that constantly challenged and questioned their originality and authority. Playing with the classifications and codes of modernity, he created exhibitions whose forms varied from the most dandy white cube to what could be an exhibition of a flea market stall. It was when he moved to Berlin in the early 2000s that he developed his projects and became involved in the Berlin art scene also by conducting curatorial projects such as Essays and Observations (2010-2013) or Radical Praxes (2015-2016).
