About the Exhibition
Adrian Paci is best known for his work in performance and video. In 1997, Paci left his native Albania to escape the violence of the armed uprising that took place that year. His status as an exile makes itself known in his works, which focus on themes of separation, nostalgia, and memory. Paci’s work, though focused on personal experience, has the ability to engage the viewer and challenge their perception of reality.
Adrian Paci currently resides and works in Milan.
