CİHAN KÜÇÜK is a Berlin-based visual anthropologist, museologist & cultural worker whose practice moves across research, writing & production. Trained in Visual and Media Anthropology (MA) at HMKW Berlin and Museum Management (MA) at Istanbul University, his work operates at the intersection of art, archives & critical theory. He has worked as a project manager, exhibition producer & archivist for institutions and initiatives such as transmediale, Owned by Others, Protocinema, Arter & IKSV. His research and writing focus on the politics of museums and cultural institutions, with particular attention to decolonization, artwashing, museum protests, and the conditions of art workers. Drawing from both academic research and fieldwork, his work engages with contemporary struggles around cultural heritage, institutional critique & platform culture. Alongside his academic and editorial contributions to platforms such as e-Skop, Hyperallergic & FWD: Museums, he develops visual and media-based projects that include short films, collages, screenprints, postcards, memes, zines and archival experiments. His practice often combines documentation with intervention, tracing how narratives are constructed across images, texts, and infrastructures. His ongoing work extends into independent publishing and artistic production through projects such as wuseuw and critical zones, where he explores alternative forms of knowledge production and dissemination.
