Eva Marisaldi's Immersive Installation at Galleria de’ Foscherari

Eva Marisaldi presents 'Surround' at Galleria de’ Foscherari in Bologna, an exhibition that transforms the gallery into a layered narrative environment. The show features 96 photocopies of drawings arranged in a continuous line, tinted blue, evoking a filmic sequence inspired by Roman Polanski's 1962 film 'Knife in the Water' and the Masurian Lakes in Poland. A kinetic sculpture titled 'Onda' (Wave) hangs from the ceiling, producing sound that mimics waves and bird flight, while 'Gli spostati'—white cardboard boxes on the floor—emit soft, repetitive noises and contain tablets looping videos. The installation is structured across horizontal planes: objects on the floor, a mobile sculpture above, and drawings at eye level, creating a temporal juxtaposition reflecting modern sensory overload. The gallery, historically focused on Arte Povera artists like Claudio Parmiggiani and Mario Ceroli, expands its program to include a mid-career artist, marking a cultural shift.
