Willem de Rooij (1969, Netherlands) investigates the production, contextualization, circulation, and interpretation of images through a variety of media. Appropriations and collaborations are fundamental to De Rooij's artistic method, and his projects have stimulated new research in art history and ethnography. With Jeroen de Rijke (1970-2006) he represented the Netherlands at the Venice Biennale (2005). De Rooij is Professor of Fine Art at the Städelschule since 2006, and visiting advisor at the Rijksakademie since 2015. In 2016, he co-founded BPA // Berlin program for artists.
