Leandro Erlich's Classroom Makes French Debut at Xippas Paris with GALLERIA CONTINUA
Leandro Erlich's installation, Classroom, is making its debut in France at the Xippas gallery in Paris, in collaboration with GALLERIA CONTINUA. This exhibition comes on the heels of Erlich's recent showcase at the Grand Palais and features a range of artworks, including several that have not been displayed before. Central to the exhibition is Pulled by the roots BOG, a house suspended in mid-air. The concepts of roots and connection are woven throughout the show, which also presents Draft-Bazza: a collection of typewriter models encrusted with sand and cracked, exhibited under glass domes as if they have just been excavated. These pieces reflect a bygone era of slower communication, portraying the typewriters as delicate artifacts from the past.
