Andrea Galvani
Andrea Galvani lives and works in New York and Mexico City. His rigorous research informs his use of photography, video, drawing, sculpture, performance, neon, archival materials, and monumental installations that are developed around the architecture of exhibition spaces.
His practice seems to increase our awareness, drawing from concepts and tools across different disciplines, often adopting scientific languages and methodologies. The artist documents collective actions, visionary experiments, and physical phenomena whose spectacular monumentality is paradoxically unstable and ephemeral. Relationships between experience, physical effort, failure, the limitations of media and the locations in which he works appear as determining factors in the development of complex projects that are often the result of collaborations with institutions, universities, and research laboratories.
