Curated by Fabrice Bousteau
Opening Thursday November 9, from 6 to 9 pm
On the occasion of the Nuit des Bains and Geneva Art Week
Xippas Gallery is pleased to present, for the first time in Geneva, an exhibition by the Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich. For this exhibition, which will be presented in our two spaces at Rue des Sablons 6 and Rue du Vieux-Billard 7, the artist and the gallery have invited the exhibition curator Fabrice Bousteau.
Entering the world of Leandro Erlich is entering a mirage, a world of optical illusions, mirrors, hidden depths, and deceits. As a conceptual artist, his work explores the perceptual foundations of reality and our ability to question these same foundations through a visual framework.
Leandro Erlich was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1973. He lives and works between Paris, Buenos Aires and Montevideo.
He participated in the Whitney Biennial in 2000 and represented Argentina at the 49th Venice Biennale (2001) with his installation ‘Swimming Pool,’ which earned him international recognition. Today, this work is part of the permanent collection of the Kanazawa Museum in Japan (along with ‘Infinite Staircase’) and the Voorlinden Museum in the Netherlands.
