Tomás Saraceno’s second solo exhibition with neugerriemschneider, tomás saracenoi, staged in anticipation of his 2026 show at Haus der Kunst, Munich, centers on cycles of water as they become both material and metaphor. This exhibition - the title of which draws upon Heteropoda saracenoi, a spider newly named after the artist by arachnologist Peter Jäger - is rooted in Saraceno’s long-standing collaborations with the indigenous communities of Salinas Grandes and Laguna de Guayatayoc in northern Argentina. The water that emerges on the region’s salt plains acts as both teacher and contested resource for these communities, as the exploitative practices of companies purporting to provide environmentally-friendly energy not only drain water, but also threaten ancestral knowledge and lived memory. These concerns flow into Saraceno’s exhibition, crucially shaping the works on view.
