until 08.06. | #4275ARTatBerlin | Peres Projects presents from 26. April 2024 (Vernissage:26.04) the exhibition Memoria by the artist Paolo Salvador.
Peres Projects presents Memoria, Paolo Salvador’s (*1990, Lima, PE) fifth solo exhibition at the gallery and his third in Berlin.
Salvador’s new works tell stories of circulation, transformation, and convergence. His expansive landscapes, populated with voyagers and a diverse bestiary, embark the viewer on a journey that extends far beyond any individual’s orientation in time and space. In several instances throughout the exhibition, Salvador’s characteristic metaphysical backgrounds, in which overlapping planes of color create multiple horizons suggestive of the multiple dimensions of existence, develop into seascapes. Reminiscent of the coastline of his hometown of Lima, they also gesture to mythological odysseys, and historical and contemporary narratives of migration. Inspired by disparate sources such as Andean cosmology and culture and the canon of Western art, the works speak to Salvador’s diasporic experience, the tangling of cultures that make up present-day Peru, and the arts made in today’s global context.
Vernissage: Friday, 26. April 2024, 6 – 9 pm
Exhibition period: Friday, 26. April until Saturday 8. June 2024
