Expanded With presents works in which the photographic medium is the starting point for investigating different types of relationship with the landscape. From performative actions from the 1960s-70s, the exhibition includes works by pioneers of Land Art, Arte povera and Body Art, the use of photography as a conceptual tool and more contemporary experiences.


Expanded With is part of Expanded, an exhibition divided into three chapters curated by Marcella Beccaria and Elena Volpato with a view to enhance the photographs included in the Collection of Fondazione per l’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea CRT on a gratuitous loan to Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea and GAM Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea of Turin. The exhibition – a single coherent path set in the venues of Castello di Rivoli, GAM and OGR Torino – presents photography from three special angles.


Besides Expanded With at Castello di Rivoli, the project includes Expanded Without at OGR and Expanded – I Paesaggi dell’arte at GAM in Turin. Expanded investigates images as an expanded field, intentionally quoting the works of American art theorist Rosalind Krauss.
