PAV | PARCO ARTE VIVENTE

Turin (TO)
included
The PAV is a contemporary art museum conceived by artist Piero Gilardi and directed by Enrico Bonanate. It comprises an open-air exhibition site and an interactive museum, a meeting place and workshop experiences aimed at the dialogue between art and nature, biotechnology and ecology, the public and artists.

The Parco Arte Vivente is an experimental centre for contemporary art with an ever-evolving green territory and occupies a former industrial area of about 23,000 square metres where, in addition to the 21 environmental installations that are part of the museum's permanent collection, other interventions of a relational and participatory nature are in progress, such as Focolare and an urban beekeeping project involving bees in La Folie du PAV by Emmanuel Louisgrand. The field of investigation is the Art of the Living, a declination of contemporary trends that as a whole includes Bioart, Transgenic Art and so-called Ecological Art. The Educational and Training Activities include public involvement in workshops and seminars led by the artists themselves, as well as a programme open to all, with guided tours, training courses for teachers, operators and students of all ages and for the adult public.
