Tiivistelmä väitöstutkimuksesta:
Lorella Scacco defends her doctoral thesis in Art History entitled A Phenomenological Approach to Media Art Environments: The Immersive Art Experience and the Finnish Art Scene at the University of Turku on 13 May 2023 at 12 o’clock in the Auditorium Aava, Arcanum, Turku.
Lorella Scacco’s doctoral thesis investigates immersive art environments from the perspective of art history, social theory, and media studies situated within a phenomenological theoretical framework. Scacco presents a comparative analysis of forms of immersive spatiality, including projected moving-image art, spatial environments, participatory installations, video art installations and interactive environments in the Finnish and international art scene. She connects disciplines, practices and concepts by adopting principles from Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological writings. Immersive art, as an embodied mutual experience, materialises the phenomenological concepts of spectatorship, corporeality, spatiality, motility, porosity, chiasm, and encounter. Her examination of immersive art, with its performativity and transience, also comprises the new commitments of art museums, such as Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art and Amos Rex Museum in Helsinki, and the innovative directions taken by media conservators.
