BIOGRAPHY
HR
Hrvoje Hiršl (1982.) hrvatski je konceptualni umjetnik koji kontinuirano istražuje i preispituje odnos između prirodnog i tehnološkog svijeta, predstavljajući ih ne kao suprotnosti, već kao nerazdvojne segmente našeg postojanja. Njegovi radovi otkrivaju skrivene složenosti ovih sustava, čineći njihove strukture i principe vidljivima i opipljivima, dok istovremeno propituju granice ljudskog iskustva. U svom radu koristi širok raspon medija, uključujući robotska imerzivnim okruženjima, kvantnu optiku, zvučne instalacije, slike, crteže i tekstove.
Godine 2023. dobio je ARTeCHÓ (Art, Economy & Technology) stipendije za svoje istraživanje kvantnih tehnologija. Sudjelovao je u nekoliko umjetničkih rezidencija, uključujući ART OMI (2025., Ghent, New York), HDLU AIR (2023., Leipzig), Crossing Parallels (2021., Delft), Bildraum Studio (2021., Beč), DordtYart Artists in Residence (2015., Dordrecht), TRIBE Residency (2013., Istanbul, Prag i Ljubljana) i Kulturkontakt Artists in Residence (2012., Beč). Godine 2012. bio je nominiran za Nagradu Radoslav Putar za najboljeg hrvatskog umjetnika mlađeg od 35 godina. Bio je dio programa AND AND AND na Documenti (13) u Kasselu 2012. godine. Također je bio jedan od hrvatskih predstavnika na Londonskom bijenalu dizajna 2016. godine. Hiršl ima bogatu međunarodnu izložbenu karijeru s brojnim samostalnim i skupnim izložbama.

ENG
Hrvoje Hiršl (1982) is a Croatian conceptual artist who continuously explores and reexamines the relationship between the natural and technological worlds, presenting them not as opposites but as inseparable segments of our existence. His works reveal the hidden complexities of these systems, making their structures and principles visible and tangible while simultaneously questioning the boundaries of human experience. In his practice, he employs a wide range of media, including robotic immersive environments, quantum optics, sound installations, paintings, drawings, and texts.
He received the ARTeCHÓ (Art, Economy & Technology) fellowship in 2023 for his research on quantum technologies. He has participated in several artist residencies, including ART OMI (2025, Ghent, New York), HDLU AIR (2023, Leipzig), Crossing Parallels (2021, Delft), Bildraum Studio (2021, Vienna), DordtYart Artists in Residence (2015, Dordrecht), TRIBE Residency (2013, Istanbul, Prague, and Ljubljana), and Kulturkontakt Artists in Residence (2012, Vienna). In 2012, he was nominated for the Radoslav Putar Award for the best Croatian artist under 35. He was part of the Documenta (13) program AND AND AND in Kassel (2012). He was one of the Croatian representatives at the Design Biennale in London in 2016. Hiršl has a rich international exhibition career with numerous solo and group exhibitions.
