Eva Marisaldi was born in 1966 in Bologna, Italy, where she continues to live and work. Marisaldi uses a broad range of media, including installation, sculpture, video and performance. Her practice investigates the intricacies of contemporary life, at times addressing technology’s mediating capabilities, or examining the increasingly personalized character of the new service industry. Marisaldi’s poetic works often suggest a series of open-ended narratives. They incite viewers to engage with each piece by encouraging a form of interactive participation, or inviting spectators to completing the work. For her piece “Lieto Fine” (2000), Marisaldi embroidered the last ten frames of twelve famous films onto 120 cushions, which she displayed alongside four videos representing imaginary movie endings.
Eva Marisaldi has recently presented solo exhibitions at Galleria S.A.L.E.S, Rome (2009), MAMbo – Galleria d’Arte Moderna di Bologna, Bologna (2007) and Galleria Massimo De Carlo, Milan (2007). Her work has also been shown as part of “Squares of Rome” at MOCA Shanghai, Shanghai (2010), “Voyage sentimental” at FRAC - Languedoc-Roussilon, Montpellier (2009), “Peripheral Vision and Collective Body” at MUSEION, Bolzano (2008), “A Grain of Dust A Drop of Water”, the 5th Gwangju Biennial (2004) and the Sevilla Biennial (2004).
Eva Marisaldi is represented by Corvi-Mora, London, Galleria S.A.L.E.S, Rome, Galleria Minini, Brescia, Italy, and Galerie Zink, Munich, Berlin and New York.
