Current Artist in Residence: Daniele Puppi

PAM CUT’s 2025 Fall Artist in Residence will be Daniele Puppi. Based in Los Angeles, Puppi is an internationally recognized artist who since his debut in 1996 with Fatica no.1, a site-specific audiovisual installation, has been working to unhinge the idea of space that is still perceived and revolves around Euclidean parameters. Puppi conceives of his work as authentic “works in regress,” which come into being after a long period of gestation spent inside the spaces. With an emphasis on video installation, he emphasizes and radically subverts the use of sound and visual-architectonic reconfigurations that always reinvents themselves. Puppi will be working with the PAM CUT offices and the Tomorrow Theater to create a unique site specific work, through his on-going series titled “ReAnimated Cinema,” which will premiere in early 2026.
