Diego Bruno (b. 1978 Mar del Plata, Argentina) lives and works in Helsinki. His multidisciplinary practice spans moving image, writing, drawing, and photography, emphasising the friction between artistic forms and political awareness within their respective narratives, and engaging with the epistemological, artistic, and political disputes of the present.
Bruno studied Art History at the University of Buenos Aires, holds a BA in Fine Arts from Escola Massana in Barcelona, and completed an MFA at the Academy of Fine Arts Helsinki. His work has been presented internationally, including at WIELS (Brussels), Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires, Manifesta 8 (Murcia), SAVVY Contemporary (Berlin), Extra City (Antwerp), MACBA (Barcelona), Malmö Konsthall, BIENALSUR, and EVA International (Ireland).
