Dejan Marković (*1983, Belgrade, Yugoslavia) is a visual artist based in Berlin. Situating his practice within installation, site-specific, and discursive art formats, Marković investigates the exploitation of natural and human resources, the socio-political impacts of technological transformation, anticolonial and feminist forms of resistance, suppressed histories, and the construction of normative frameworks, with a focus on micro-histories and socio-political contexts. His immersive work employs a range of media, including film, photography, everyday objects, drawings, sculpture, and archival materials. After completing his graduate and master’s studies in fine art at the University of Arts in Belgrade and Berlin (UdK Berlin), Marković worked as an assistant professor, lecturer, and researcher at the Institute for Contemporary Art, Graz University of Technology (2015–2020). He was active as a board member of the Professional Association of Visual Artists Berlin (bbk-berlin) in 2024/2025. He has been a member of several art collectives, organizing exhibitions and artistic events.
