I Speak Radio

Anna Bromley

Anna Bromley is an artist and writer in Berlin. Her furtive radio listening in the disintegrating GDR forms the starting point of her artistic research on clandestine protest radio. Following an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach, she dispatches her own radio voice in search of improvised radio speech beyond state-supported broadcasters, hand-soldered amplifiers, police surveillance protocols, and polyphonic memories. In the process, she combines her auditory essays with objects and installations, performances and processual drawings.

Bromley’s radio assemblages have recently been heard and seen in the German Pavilion at the 23rd Triennale di Milano, at Manifesta 14 in Pristina, at beuys2021 in Düsseldorf, the Tbilisi Biennale, at the Akademie der Künste der Welt Cologne, at the Akademie der Künste and HKW – both in Berlin, and documenta14 in Kassel.
