Simon Dybbroe Møller was born in Aarhus, Denmark (1976), and he lives and work in Berlin, Germany.
He studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and at Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main.

Simon Dybbroe Møller’s practice tests the relationship between essential sensate qualities and the evolution of communication; how it feels to be bodies tumbling or stumbling through this world; how we change media and how media changes us. His work often concerns the materiality and physicality of things against the backdrop of ubiquitous representations in the media.

He has had solo exhibitions at Contemporary Art Centre in Vilnius, Fondazione Giuliani in Rome, Kunsthalle Sao Paulo, 21er Haus in Vienna, Kunstverein Hannover, Frankfurter Kunstverein, among others. His work was included in the 5th Moscow Biennial, the 2nd Turin Triennial, and the 9th Berlin Biennial and in group exhibitions at MOCA Detroit; KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; SMK National Gallery, Copenhagen; Centre Pompidou, Paris;  CCA Wattis in San Francisco, Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin, Ludwig Museum Köln, MMK Frankfurt am Main and the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo. Dybbroe Møller has been an invited lecturer and guest teacher at Harvard University, UDK Berlin, Kunstakademie München and  École Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Lyon.
