Nairy Baghramian

Nairy Baghramian (born 1971) is an Iranian-born German visual artist of Armenian ethnicity. Since 1984, she has lived and worked in Berlin. Using an extensive repertoire of techniques, materials, and forms, Baghramian’s site-responsive sculptures and installations explore the relationship between architecture, objects, and the human figure.

When the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum selected Baghramian as a finalist for the 2020 Hugo Boss Prize, they described Baghramian’s practice as: "...[Exploring] the workings of the body, gender, and public and private space."
