Michael Just (born 1979 Frankfurt am Main, Germany) is a German interdisciplinary artist and educator.

Biography[edit]

Michael Just studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 2000 to 2007, completing his studies under Daniel Buren with a diploma (MA) and Meisterschüler.[1]. From 2004 to 2006, he was assistant to Daniel Buren. While in Düsseldorf, he also worked with Elia Zenghelis (architecture) and Hubert Kiecol (integration of arts and architecture).

From 2007 to 2009, he studied at the University of London, Goldsmiths, with a DAAD postgraduate scholarship and the EHF-Fellowship from the Konrad-Adenauer-Foundation,[2] earning an MFA in Art Practice[3][4]. He lived in New York City from 2010 to 2012, participating in the Whitney Museum of American Art Independent Study Program from 2010 to 2011.[5]

Michael Just is currently a doctoral candidate at the City University of Hong Kong, School of Creative Media,[6] and a Visiting Researcher at Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture, with the Ecologies of Architecture Research Group[7].

Since 2023, he has been a member of the Steering Committee of DigitalFUTURES[8] where he chaired the jury for the 2023 Mark Cousins Theory Award.[9]

Michael Just teaches part-time at Hong Kong Baptist University, Academy of Visual Arts.[10] Since 2008, he has maintained a studio in Berlin-Kreuzberg and currently lives and works in Berlin, Hong Kong, and the Südburgenland region in Austria[11]

Artistic Practice[edit]

Michael Just's work has engaged early on with public space, architecture, urbanism, and design within the framework of a relational practice[12][13]. The focus of his work revolves around the question of how art can facilitate new relationships and thus become a transformative force within society. This approach is explicitly post-anthropocentric and decolonial, envisioning artistic methods and models for the integration and coexistence of diverse forms of cognition and intelligence—both biological and technological—across various substrates and timescales[14]. His work is primarily constituted through interdisciplinary collaboration and often falls within the realm of artistic research, understood as the communicability and applicability of insights gained systematically through artistic methods to various scientific disciplines.

In its primary orientation as transformative knowledge production, Michael Just's work integrates pedagogy, as well as the design of educational institutions, physically and conceptually at the same time.[citation needed] Here, architecture and medicine overlap in light of social regeneration and repair[15]

Teaching (Selection)[edit]

Michael Just has taught at universities and art schools since 2004. He has participated in conferences on methods of artistic research and art education and has published on these topics, most recently as part of CAMP Notes on Education at documenta fifteen.[16]
