For the first time, DIE GALERIE is presenting works by Fabrizio Plessi. Born in Reggio Emilia in 1940, the artist – a ‘Venetian by choice’ – ranks alongside Nam June Paik, Bruce Nauman and Valie Export as one of the most significant international pioneers of video art. Since the 1970s, the element of water has been at the heart of Plessi’s oeuvre, serving as a metaphor for the origin of life, the passage of time, and the flow of consciousness and memory. Over the course of his artistic career, which now spans more than 50 years, he has explored this subject from a wide variety of perspectives. The exhibition at DIE GALERIE focuses on the SPLASH series, created around 2019, which fuses the precision of high-end video technology with the timeless, meditative beauty of moving water.
