Leandro Erlich — Hybrids at Negozio Olivetti, Venice

Leandro Erlich. Hybrids — Negozio Olivetti, Venice

Dates: 9 May — 22 November 2026 (opening event 6 May). Venue: Negozio Olivetti, Piazza San Marco, Venice.

Presented during the 61st International Art Exhibition, Hybrids gathers roughly twenty sculptures and photographic works by Leandro Erlich that blend natural, architectural and anthropomorphic elements into unexpected hybrid forms.

Highlights

• Papillon (2021) — bronze: a butterfly with wings resembling ears, prompting reflections on communication.
• Caracol – The pace of evolution (2021) — Carrara marble: a brain metamorphosing into a snail, evoking slow, layered evolution.
• White Coral (2025) — resin: draws parallels between coral growth and urban morphology.
• Recent works such as Pixel Tree (2026) in bronze and textile installations and photographs that expand the inquiry into hybridization of space and perception.

Why go

Erlich’s pieces work as poetic devices that mix identities and encourage viewers to see art as an active force shaping urban and environmental imaginaries. The setting inside the Negozio Olivetti — a landmark where architecture and design converge — amplifies the dialogue between site and artwork.
