Corte Vico II San Michele 2025 — Montagna
Corte Vico II San Michele is an installation event that transforms a historic courtyard in Ottaviano (NA) into a living pavilion of contemporary art, exploring themes related to life in Vesuvius’s red zone. For the 2025 edition, Montagna, I photographed the exhibition setup, the site-specific installations, and Mario Gabola and Peppe Vietri’s main sound performance on 10 May 2025.
The documentation includes the courtyard installation, the details of the video installations in the underground rooms, the photographic prints mounted between brick and plaster walls, the garden section, and the custom-built table for the electronic setup.
This documentation is part of Document and Archive, an ongoing collection of photographs depicting events, artworks, performances and installations by artists I have worked with — an archive of artistic practices.
