The show

In how many ways and with what expressions has the relationship of the work with space been defined? Environment, environment, immersive work, environmental work are just some of the many definitions used in the attempt to explain processes and evolutions of the relationship between art, space, environment.

Ambiènte Archivio, through a selection of materials from the Art Archive Center, recounts the development of space-environmental research through the different declinations of the term environment, migrated and consolidated in the historical critical lexicon. The research proposes a mapping of the words used in the lexicon of art from Lucio Fontana's Ambiente spatial a luce nera (1949) up to Zaha Hadid's museum-environment (2010).

The exhibition focuses on three semantic macro-areas defined on the basis of three possible declinations of the term: Space-environment, the first experimental phase in which the artists measure themselves in the design phase with the transition from the work-object to the work-environment; Perception-environment, a chapter that welcomes an immersive, experiential, performative dimension that involves other disciplines, leaving the spaces of galleries and museums to reconnect with urban and social space, up to the canonization of environmental art with the 1976 Venice Biennale ; Dimension-environment, a moment of transition in which the term "installation" appears more and more frequently with all the variations and lexical derivations, connoting an increasingly evident relationship between the work and the context of the exhibition.
