Space

Painted plywood

Eight parts 10 x 10 x 0.5 cm each, overall dimensions site-specific

The work was executed in seven editions, identical in size and in terms of the material used, but with different colours. Colours vary from white to phosphorescent hues, or else the same colour as that of the wall where the work is installed.

1 White edition: Private collection
2 White edition: Private collection

7 Edition of unknown colour and whereabouts
5 Phosphorescent orange edition: gift of the artist, 25 October 2012, archive no. GPO-0120
6 Wall colour edition: acquired in 1999, inventory no. III/653, 1-8

The work must be installed in a separate room, where no other works are present (at least not on the walls). The room, ideally featuring a square plan, must measure a minimum of 3.50 x 3.50 m.
The eight monochrome letters are placed equidistant from each other on the four walls of the room (also on doors, windows, mirrors, and so on) and at the level of the optical axis (160 cm from the ground). They must also be clockwise in order to compose the words “Lo spazio” (The space). Two adhesives should be attached to the back of each letter in order to create a small space (ca. 4-5 mm) from the wall.

Lo spazio consists of the eight letters in the title: the installation involves placing the eight painted wooden letters on the walls of a room, “at the viewer’s eye level (160 cm from the floor) and at a reciprocal distance equal to 1/8 of the perimeter of the room”.1 Each time Lo spazio actualizes “from real life” the general concept it defines: dismembered in space, the locution is the image of that space, as well as of itself.
The work was reproduced in 1985 in a version that used larger plexiglas shapes, to be arranged on the ground in a totally different way so as to form an illegible tangle. (GPO-0548).
