more information

Immersive works—on the borderline between art, architecture, and design—come alive with the public’s interaction in organic continuity with the spaces designed by Zaha Hadid.

The works on display highlights women’s fundamental contribution to the history of this artistic expression and investigates further the critical aspects of environmental art’s nature, bringing to surface themes such as the relationship with public space, the introduction of new technologies, and the consequent active involvement of spectators.

role-playing

Did you know you can visit the environments by listening to your body and senses?

Next to the artwork captions, you can choose your own animal icon, put it on the sticker, and visit the exhibition: Are you a cat, a rabbit, an elephant, or an owl?

The artworks were part of Ambienti 1956-2010. Environments by Women Artists II an exhibition by MAXXI and Haus der Kunst München. The original exhibition Inside Other Spaces. Environments by Women Artists 1956-1976 is conceived and produced by Haus der Kunst München 2023.
