The Berlin-based artist duo Prinz Gholam consists of Wolfgang Prinz (born in Leutkirch, Germany, 1969) and Michel Gholam (born in Beirut, Lebanon, 1963). Working together since 2001, they have developed an artistic practice that is based on performative and collaborative processes which lead to live performances, videos, and installations including objects, photographs, drawings, and text. Their work is an ongoing strive to re-activate, re-locate and negotiate the self and the body between its cultural construct and the world we live in now.
