KIOSK, Alisa Grifo (b. 1969; New Jersey) and Marco Romeny (b. 1974; Stockholm), live and work in Stockholm, Provence, and New York. Their combined backgrounds cover a diverse range of fields from art history to applied physics. Since 2005, they have run the public project, KIOSK, which has taken a variety of forms in different environments, most notably as a physical and online store. Included in the Greater New York exhibition at MoMA PS1, Queens, in 2015, their collection of 1,300 objects was presented as a 2,000-square-foot immersive installation fabricated onsite and included a handmade display for the objects, an audio guide, and site-specific neon sculptures.

Their work as KIOSK has been featured in The New York Times, The New Yorker, ARTnews, Artnet, Fast Company, AnOther Magazine, Something Curated, and Monocle, among other publications. They have collaborated with the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, New York; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; and Institute of Contemporary Art, London; and lectured widely about their work. Most recently, they were awarded a grant from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee, Konstnärsnämnden, to begin work on a book about KIOSK. Today, they continue to work together on KIOSK and maintain practices as individual artists.
