Chicago è una città artificiale nel deserto del Negev, costruita dal governo israeliano per addestrare l’esercito al combattimento urbano. Una scenografia disabitata, costruita come quelle palestinesi di Ramallah e Nablus, con finti graffiti in arabo sui muri, carcasse di automobili per la strada, moschee e campi profughi. A Chicago tutto, anche un cartone di latte al supermercato, può essere l’ordigno per un attentato: un non luogo grottesco, estremamente efficace per descrivere diffidenza, pregiudizio e il sentire degli israeliani nei confronti dei palestinesi. Il progetto è una riflessione sul tema della costruzione – reale e simbolica – di un territorio, espressione della condizione di violenza e insicurezza originate dalla irrisolta questione dei territori nel rapporto Israele-Palestina. Con questo ciclo fotografico del 2006-2007, gli autori si interrogano sul valore della fotografia in rapporto ai conflitti contemporanei: in una società ormai satura di immagini in cui il fotoreportage ha perso gran parte del significato originario, superato da tecnologia e ragioni della politica, questa riflessione si rivela ancor più attuale oggi, dopo il 7 ottobre 2023. Un lavoro che, a quasi vent’anni dalla sua pubblicazione, rivela tutta la sua amara attualità.
Adam Broomberg (Johannesburg, Sud Africa, 1970) e Oliver Chanarin (Londra, UK, 1971) vivono e lavorano tra Londra e Berlino. Professori di fotografia alla Hochschule für Bildende Künste (HFBK) di Amburgo e alla Royal Academy of Art (KABK) dell’Aia, il loro lavoro è in importanti collezioni internazionali pubbliche e private tra cui Pompidou, Tate, MoMA, Yale, Stedelijk, V&A, Art Gallery of Ontario, Cleveland Museum of Art e Baltimore Museum of Art. Tra i premi più importanti lo ICP Infinity Award (2014), il Deutsche Börse Photography Prize (2013), l’Arles Photo Text Award (2018). Nel 2021 hanno cessato la collaborazione.
Depuis 1967 et l’occupation par Israël de la Cisjordanie, des milliers d’oliviers ont été détruits par les autorités ou les colons israéliens. Entre 2022 et 2023, les photographes Adam Broomberg et Rafael Gonzalez ont immortalisé les arbres encore debout, pour certains millénaires, emblèmes de l’enracinement palestinien dans ces territoires.
Since 1967 and Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, thousands of olive trees have been destroyed by Israeli authorities or settlers. Between 2022 and 2023, photographers Adam Broomberg and Rafael Gonzalez immortalized the trees still standing, for some millennials, emblems of Palestinian rootedness in these territories.
Adam Broomberg and Rafael Gonzalez will be in conversation with Issa Amro to mark the launch of Anchor in the Landscape, a book that brings together studied, absorbing portraits of olive trees in Palestine which act as fixed points in a historic and transforming landscape that is constantly disputed, altered, and destroyed.

Hundreds of cultural figures have decried the nation’s “McCarthyist policies” equating criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism.
Adam Broomberg returns! The South African, Jewish artist updates us on his journey as a Palestine activist living in Germany, we discuss the censorship of anti-zionism in Germany and we also check in with ourselves and explore how this is impacting us all emotionally.
#1
Artists + Allies x Hebron shares the grief we all feel about the continued loss of civilian lives.
We call for an immediate ceasefire, humanitarian aid accompanied by electricity and water, with fuel.
While we condemn the atrocities that began on October 7th we are equally aware of the state of things on the day before and the decades proceding it. The root causes are Israel’s apartheid and the systematic oppression and persecution of Palestinians.
#2
Our founding member, the renowned human rights defender, Issa Amro has been beaten and detained multiple times and has recently been evicted from his home and our centre in Hebron.
Artists + Allies x Hebron condemn these illegal acts and stand by Issa in support and solidarity.
We, Salah Said, a German-Palestinian citizen, and Adam Broomberg, a Jewish German resident, address you today in the name of freedom and peace.
Therefore, we urge you to reconsider the bans on pro-Palestine peace demonstrations and take appropriate measures to ensure the protection of freedom of speech and freedom of assembly while respecting public safety and peace.
We are pleased to announce an open call for artists’ submissions for THE UNION magazine. You can find the submission form below as well as on the AAH Instagram page BIO. For any further questions don’t hesitate to contact AAH.
Adam Broomberg has joined HfG Karlsruhe as a guest professor of Photography in the Media Art department.
In today’s highly interconnected world, intersectional solidarity serves as a light of hope and a powerful call to action. It forces us to recognize the common link between various struggles, such as Palestinian freedom, women’s rights in Iran, LGBTQ+ equality, and indigenous land and rights. All these movements share a core element: the resolute resistance against oppressive systems…
After more than 55 years of Israeli military control, the West Bank and Hebron’s old city have morphed into the quintessential chimaera of militarism in the digital age. From motion and heat sensors, license plate scanners, and 24/7 CCTV to advanced algorithmic facial recognition technologies, Hebron is akin to an Orwellian fantasy, where the single, malevolent gaze of a military watchtower spawns into an assemblage of electronic monitoring devices powered by computers and code…
