Biography

Born in Las Cruces, New Mexico (1975). Lives and works in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Noam Toran’s practice involves the creation of intricate narratives developed as a means to disrupt hegemonic historiographies. Drawing from marginalised or neglected histories, Toran reflects upon the interrelations of memory, erasure, mythology, identity, and the essential force of storytelling as embodied in archives, film, literature, and performance. The work is materialised through dramatizations that take the form of installations, educational models, films, performances and scripts.

The work is exhibited, screened and published internationally, notably at the CNAC Pompidou (Paris), Kunsthalle Wien (Vienna), Victoria & Albert Museum (London), Schirn Kunsthalle (Frankfurt), Israel Museum (Jerusalem), Kunstinstituut Melly (Rotterdam), MuHKA (Antwerp), Museum of Modern Art (NYC), Venice Architecture Biennale, Lisbon Architecture Triennale, Stroom Gallery (Den Haag), Musée d’Art Contemporain (St Etienne), Baltic Contemporary (Newcastle), Arnolfini Gallery (Bristol), Center for Contemporary Art (Tel Aviv), Musée D’Art Moderne (Luxembourg), Kulturhuset (Stockholm) and Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin).
