The Pista 500, the Pinacoteca Agnelli’s art project on its rooftop and located amidst its iconic FIAT car test track, will be enriched with new site-specific installations by Liam Gillick, Marco Giordano, Nan Goldin, SUPERFLEX. The new works join existing installations by Nina Beier, VALIE EXPORT, Sylvie Fleury, Shilpa Gupta, Louise Lawler, Mark Leckey and Cally Spooner, which embrace the different languages of sculpture: environmental installations, light or sound works, expanded cinema projects and sculptures that confront the architecture of the building.

Via Nizza, 230 - 10126, Torino

Culture

On the roof of the Lingotto, a building designed in the 1920s by Giacomo Mattè Trucco as the first FIAT factory, lies the famous car test track, a symbol of industrial Turin.

In the 1980s, architect Renzo Piano repurposed the entire building into a multifunctional space, adding new elements such as Lo Scrigno (home to the permanent collection of the Pinacoteca Agnelli) and La Bolla (a fully glazed meeting room), while preserving other iconic features like the rooftop track and the spiral ramps that allowed cars to access it.

The track was transformed again in 2019, through a project by the Turin-based studio Camerana & Partners, along with landscape architect Cristiana Ruspa, into a garden with over 40,000 plants, which now hosts temporary contemporary art installations curated by the Pinacoteca Agnelli.
