Hey Lauren,
That’s a great idea!
Thank you for thinking of this.
I slowly started with edits for Mariane's text, and also thought of an important note for Marina's text (about the relationship between NFTs and Duchamp: do you think I should hold off with this until the next draft?)
Below is a bio you can use. Let me know if you need anything else for the dossier.

Joshua Schwebel is a Canadian artist based between Montreal and Berlin. Since graduating from NSCAD in 2008, Schwebel has become known for practicing a particularly direct form of institutional critique, undertaken through process-based performances, withdrawals, delegated transactions, and impostors.
Selected solo exhibitions include presentations at Galerie UQO (Gatineau, 2022), Centre Clark (Montreal, 2021), piloto pardo (London, UK, 2021), Or Gallery (Vancouver, 2019), Kreuzberg Pavillon as one of the shortlisted artists for the 2019 Berlin Art Prize (2019), the Fonderie Darling (Montreal, 2018), and Centrum (Berlin, 2017).
Schwebel was a participating fellow in the Art by Translation program’s inaugural year (2017), was a participant in BPA // Berlin Program for Artists (2020-21), and has undertaken residencies at AiR 351 (Lisbon), Laznia CCA (Gdansk), the Couvent des Récollets (Paris), the Künstlerhaus Bethanien (Berlin), Rupert (Vilnius), Tadeusz Kantor Foundation (Krakow), Standards (Milan), and Where Where (Beijing), among others. Schwebel’s work has been supported by grants from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Québec. Schwebel is currently one of the long-listed artists for this year’s Sobey Art Award.
