Leonardo Erlich - inspirational visual tricks


the SWIMMING POOL, 2001 by Erlich

Leandro Erlich, born in 1973 in Buenos Aires, has been exhibiting his work internationally for over ten years. He represented Argentina at the 49th Venice Biennale (2001), where he showed “Swimming Pool”

Erlich has constructed a full-size pool, complete with all its trappings, including a deck and a ladder. When approached from above, visitors are confronted with a surreal scene: people, fully clothed, can be seen standing, walking, and breathing beneath the surface of the water. It is only when visitors enter the basement that they recognize that the pool is empty,
