Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) is pleased to present Leandro Erlich: Liminal, an immersive exhibition featuring iconic artworks by Argentine artist Leandro Erlich, opening on November 29, 2022. Selected and arranged by New York-based guest curator Dan Cameron, the exhibition marks the artist’s first monographic survey show in North America and features 16 works spanning more than two decades of Erlich’s production.
“I believe in art as a practice that sparks dialogue—a dynamic and ongoing conversation with the audience and the greater context. I have never created a project or work without placing the audience’s participation at the center of the experience or without considering the surrounding environment. Architecture is often a key element in my work, and I incorporate local architectural language and cultural constructs that enliven my practice. I have been a nomadic artist for more than two decades, exploring territory far beyond my native Buenos Aires and journeying far outside of my comfort zone. However, as I approach fifty, I consider myself deeply Argentine. This cornerstone of my identity lends particular significance to my first mid-career survey at PAMM, a museum steeped in Latin American culture and heritage. Miami is a cultural nexus between North and South America, between hemispheres and languages. It’s a privilege to show my work in a context that is embedded in my own life,” said Leandro Erlich.
The exhibit is conceived as a sequence of spaces that one might encounter every day: an elevator, subway, classroom, hair salon, sidewalk, swimming pool, laundry room—even a window through which the neighbors’ windows can be seen. Each space is a precise simulation of these ordinary scenarios, but Erlich’s touch fosters extraordinary experiences. A window is air, a reflection is missing, bodies travel in time and space.
