Works
Biography
Andrea Galvani (b. 1973, Italy) is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in New York and Mexico City. Drawing on scientific methodologies and conceptual research, his practice spans photography, video, drawing, sculpture, sound, installation and performance.
His work investigates the relationships between fragility and monumentality, visibility and invisibility, and human experience and the wider natural world. Through immersive installations and collaborative projects, Galvani explores themes of time, collective memory, and transformation, situating human existence within broader geological, cosmic and social processes. His practice challenges conventional perceptions of space and scale, revealing the connections between individual experience and planetary phenomena.
Galvani has exhibited internationally at institutions including the Whitney Museum in New York, the Mart Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Trento and Rovereto, and the 23rd Triennale di Milano. In 2019, he received the prestigious Audemars Piguet Prize and in 2025, he presented his first institutional solo exhibition in Asia at Fotografiska Shanghai.
