Kader Attia: Remembering the Future

Kader Attia was born to Algerian parents in a suburb north of Paris in 1970. The experience of living in two cultures forms the basis for his artistic practice, and his work deals with Europe and the western world’s colonial past and its consequences.

The artist’s multifaceted output encompasses sculptures, installations, photos and videos that combine high aesthetic quality with profoundly ethical concerns. They reflect his determination to address the crises and the pressing social policy issues of our times.
