Andrea Santarlasci's 'Riflessi da un luogo invisibile' at Galleria Passaggi, Pisa

exhibition · 2026-04-27

Andrea Santarlasci (born 1964 in Pisa) presents 'Riflessi da un luogo invisibile' at Galleria Passaggi in Pisa, curated by Arabella Natalini. The exhibition explores the historical confluence of the Auser River (now Serchio) and the Arno River, a site that shaped local identity but is now invisible. Santarlasci's works include a large installation of a staircase flooded with river water, evoking an ancient Pisan landing; photographs of fluvial landscapes; a sculpture from a branch collected at the river mouth; and a triptych of lightboxes with the word 'Auser' illuminated in varying letters, referencing Heraclitus's reflection on the flow of existence. The exhibition runs until January 23, 2016.
