Franziska Greber is a Swiss artist whose work delves into societal and political tensions, addressing themes such as exclusion and participation, isolation and cohesion, silence and speech, as well as resignation and resistance.
She understands her artistic work as promoting a culture of lively and critical dialogue in the respective work context.
The voices of those affected, contribute to the perception and visibility of these experiences and also encourage others to stand up for their rights and demands.
Collaboration and participation are the anchor and the various media the means of her artistic intervention.
In 2023, Franziska Greber was awarded the prestigious German art prize The Power of the Arts for her international, transdisciplinary and participatory art project against discrimination and violence WOMEN IN THE DARK. „[…] It takes a stand against turning a blind eye and remaining silent, impressing not only with its relevance but also with its high artistic quality. Last but not least, its participatory nature connects and involves many and diverse women and thereby empowers them,” says the jury.
Since 2024, research on WOMEN IN THE DARK has been planned: „I am exited to explore data from Franziska Greber’s international art project […]. Combining art and science […] fulfills a long-standing goal […],“ says Dr. Müge Süer of the Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH).
Franziska Greber’s works have been exhibited in China, India, Mauritius, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy.
