Ranging from abstract sculptural forms to the use of both written and spoken language, Falke Pisano’s subtle, evocative work is tied to a continuous and evolving production of meaning. Her works, whether objects, installations, videos, publications or performances, are based on historical and theoretical research, resulting in projects that she terms ‘diagrammatic’.

The publication Figures of Speech, co-edited and laid out by the British graphic artist Will Holder (JRP-Ringier, Christoph Keller Editions, 2010) and devoted to Pisano’s work, also emphasizes the importance of speech and discourse in her oeuvre and her relationship with various forms of artistic arrangement and production. Since 2001, Falke Pisano’s series of events and performances The Body in Crisis has explored today’s disrupted relationship with the body in crisis.

Pisano’s work has been displayed in solo exhibitions at venues including Ellen de Bruijne Projects in Amsterdam (2007 and 2011), Hollybush Gardens in London (2009 and 2012), the CAC in Vilnius (with Benoît Maire, 2011), the Transmission Gallery in Glasgow (2010), Extra City in Antwerp (2010) and the Kunstverein in Graz (2009). She has taken part in the Venice Biennale (2009) and Manifesta (2008) and has given performances at Madrid’s Museo Reina Sofía (2012), at the 5th Berlin Biennale (2008) and at London’s Lisson Gallery (2007).
