ENVIRONMENTS AND PLASTIC INTEGRATION TO ARCHITECTURE  

Paolo Scheggi, "Cannocchiale ottico percorribile" (Walking Optical Telescope), 1968, chromed steel model. Lost work.

“Scheggi’s passage from the picture/object enclosed by well-defined boundaries to genuine environmental structures which involve the viewers in a dynamic situation has not, then, been an arbitrary step but a coherent evolution dictated by the same basic premises as the initial research. In other words, I mean to say that Scheggi’s picture/object, even in its three-dimensional version, must be considered as a formative matrix having the potential of an all-embracing space”.

Filiberto Menna, 1969
