American artist and theorist Warren Neidich works between Berlin and New York City. He was trained in fine art, architecture, and neuroscience. In the past five years he has used texts, neon-light sculptures, paintings, and photographs to create cross-pollinating conceptual works that reflect upon situations at the border zones of art, critical neuroscience, and cognitive justice. He has been the founder and director of the Saas-Fee Summer Institute of Art since 2015. Awards include the Maison Sugar Research Fellowship, Paris (2023); the Getty Research Foundation Award (2022); the Stiftung Kunstfonds NEUSTART KULTUR (2020 and 2021); the Hauptstadtkulturfonds (2021); the Katalogförderung des Berliner Senats (2017); and the Vilém Flusser Theory Award, Transmediale (2010).

He has been a visiting lecturer at Brown University, GSD Harvard University, Columbia University, Princeton University, Sorbonne University in Paris, and the University of Oxford and Cambridge University, among many others.
