Rabih Mroué is an artist, actor and director who lives in Berlin and whose work merges visual art, performance, and theatre. Blending reality and fiction in his work, Mroué uses found documents, video footage, photographs, and objects to compromise the authority of archival evidence.

He is a co-founder and board member of the Beirut Art Center (BAC), a contributing editor to TDR: The Drama Review (NYC), and an associate director at the Münchner Kammerspiele.

He has had exhibitions at MOMA in 2015, at the Mesnta Gallerija in Ljubljana in 2014, at SALT in Istanbul in 2014, at CA2M in Madrid in 2013, and at DOCUMENTA 13. Rabih Mroué created three pieces with the Dance On Ensemble so far – “Water between three hands” (2016), “Elephant” (2018) and “You should have seen me dancing waltz” (2019).
