Marco Perego: The Being

Prepare for a transformative encounter with art that breathes, reacts, and remembers as Jeffrey Deitch presents The Being, a groundbreaking solo exhibition by Italian-born artist Marco Perego. This immersive installation transcends the traditional gallery experience, blurring the lines between the observer and the observed through a sophisticated network of video, sound, and sensory elements.

The vibe is one of ethereal connection and “shared consciousness.” The gallery becomes a living entity—its heartbeat guided by real-time data from the Sun and its mood shifting in response to your presence. In this quiet, contemplative sanctuary, the atmosphere is charged with a sense of “deep time,” where visitors are invited to sit, breathe, and witness the room intensify or soften based on their own emotional states. It is a space designed for transcendence, offering a rare opportunity to connect distant celestial rhythms with the intimacy of the present moment.

At the center of this experience is the multidisciplinary artistry of Marco Perego, an artist whose work across film, installation, and drawing explores the turbulence of contemporary life and the beauty of transformation. Known for his internationally exhibited works and his acclaimed feature film The Absence of Eden, Perego brings a cinematic and philosophical depth to the gallery. Join us for a celebratory and evocative evening that explores what it means to be alive in an ever-changing world.
