Miles Greenberg

Miles Greenberg (b. 1997, Montreal, Canada) is a New York-based performance artist and sculptor. His work consists of large-scale, sensorially immersive environments, activated by often extreme durational performances that invoke the body as sculptural material. These performances are then captured before the audience to generate video works and sculptures. Rigorous and ritualistic in its methodology, Greenberg’s universe relies on slowness and the entropy of form to heighten the audience’s sensitivities.

At age seventeen, Greenberg left formal education, launching himself into four years of independent research on movement and architecture. He has worked under the mentorship of Édouard Lock, Robert Wilson, and Marina Abramović and has been an artist in residence at Fountainhead Arts (2023); Palais de Tokyo (2019), and The Watermill Centre (2017 & 2018) among others. In 2023, Greenberg was featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 in the Art & Style Category.

He has exhibited internationally at various institutions including the Louvre (Paris), Neue Nationalgalerie (Berlin), Royal Theatre Carré (Amsterdam), The New Museum (New York), Pace Gallery (New York), Southbank Centre (London) and more. Greenberg’s work has also been included in numerous international art surveys, including the Athens Biennial, Yokohama Triennale, BoCA Lisbon, and Bangkok Art Biennale.

Miles Greenberg

is a place to discover Amsterdam’s dynamic and forward-thinking art scene.

For this manifestation, Hassanain shares her ongoing visual research into the spatial implications of catastrophes. In this provocation the artist zooms in on an intimate ‘site of catastrophe’: her grandmother’s house.
