Aziz + Cucher

Anthony Aziz (born 1961) and Sammy Cucher (born 1958) are American artists based in Brooklyn, New York who work together as the collaborative duo Aziz + Cucher. Their interdisciplinary practice has included digital photography and animation, video, textiles, screen-printing and sculpture. They emerged in the early 1990s and are regarded as pioneers in post-photography and the then-nascent use of digital imaging in fine art. The duo's earlier photography and sculptures centered on socio-anthropological themes, such as dehumanization, communication breakdown and notions of utopia or dystopia in relation to advancing technology. In later installations and exhibitions, they have taken a more political approach, examining issues such as war, inequality and the effects of globalization.

Aziz + Cucher have exhibited at venues including the New Museum, Venice Biennale, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), MASS MoCA and International Center of Photography. Their artwork belongs to the public collections of LACMA, SFMOMA, Fonds national d'art contemporain (Paris), Galería de Arte Nacional (Caracas), and the Museum of Contemporary Photography, among others.
