Adam Broomberg (born 1970) and Oliver Chanarin (born 1971) are artists living and working in London.[1]
Together they have had numerous international exhibitions. Their work is represented in major public and private collections. They were awarded the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize for their book War Primer 2,[2] described as a "book that physically inhabits the pages of Bertolt Brecht's remarkable 1955 publication War Primer."[3] They were awarded the International Center of Photography Infinity Award[4] for their publication, Holy Bible.[5]
Broomberg and Chanarin founded the imprint Chopped Liver Press to publish and sell their own books as well as those by other artists.[6][7]
Broomberg was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and Chanarin was born in London.[8]
