The London-based agency of artists, researchers, architects and lawyers tackle human rights abuses internationally, their films and 3D mapping exhibited in courts of law as much as museums. Exhibitions are plentiful, however, with an investigation into German colonial-era violence in Namibia shown at the National Art Gallery of Namibia in Windhoek, and a ‘people’s court’ staged at the Bienal de São Paulo for communities of the Niger and Mississippi deltas affected by ecological ruin. Led by Israeli architect Eyal Weizman, Forensic Architecture has always made Palestine a major focus, and the agency initiated and continued numerous investigations into Israeli atrocities in Gaza, including evidence of ecocide (shown at MEDPHOTO, Athens), the targeting of Al-Ahli Hospital (shown in a solo show at 126, Galway) and the overarching ‘Cartography of Genocide’, initiated in aid of the ongoing International Court of Justice case against Israel. The agency also collaborated with the flotilla that attempted to get aid to Palestine. They are not ‘neutral investigators’, Weizman told Dezeen. ‘We are an investigative agency that always takes the side of the victims.’
