Feedback. The Environments of Franco Vaccari
Museion, Bozen-Bolzano
28.3-13.9.2026
•
“Feedback. The Environments of Franco Vaccari” brought together a selection of environments created by Vaccari between 1968 and 2005, reconstructed through archival materials, oral testimonies, photographs, and documentation from public and private collections. Where possible, the installations were faithfully reproduced; others were adapted to Museion’s spaces according to the artist’s original instructions and archival evidence.
Rather than following a chronological sequence, the exhibition unfolded as a journey through different environments and states of perception. The third floor focused on the intimate, individual, and dreamlike dimension of Vaccari’s work, while the fourth opened into a more collective experience, evoking spaces such as cinemas, bars, and streets. The exhibition gradually shifted from individual experience towards a shared environment, inviting visitors to move freely between reconstructed realities and become part of the work itself.
