On the occasion of the exhibition Mentre la vita ci respira – SoPolpoVit’EreticoLe, Emanuele Coccia provides a commentary on the practice of the artist Ernesto Neto and the latter’s transformation of the exhibition space into a piece of living architecture, a place of interaction that seeks the participation of the viewer so as to engender a profound link between body, environment, and wider community. Coccia explores the potential of Neto’s artistic practice, in which the aesthetic engagement is partially mediated through the use of senses, including smell, that are all too often neglected in the act of aesthetic engagement and are here called upon to reawaken deep-seated memories and emotions.
Art on Earth is the third book in a series of short essay collections inspired by the site-specific art projects specially conceived for GAMeC at Palazzo della Ragione, a symbolic, time-honored location within the city of Bergamo that embodies the values of community life and participation. The artist was asked to name an author who interests him—be it a researcher, a philosopher, or a scholar—and whose thinking could be said to underpin the project, with a view to finding a path through the complexities of the present day, starting from the work produced but without necessarily lingering on it.
