Riflessione pedagogica e land art. Sguardo, creatività e testimonianza per l’outdoor education

The contribution questions land art as an opportunity for pedagogical reflection, in order to grasp its potential in a broad educational sense, between Outdoor Education and environmental pedagogy, for an authentic and integral formation of the person. In the perspective of educational sustainability and human development, how is it possible to consider art and beauty in the natural sphere, for the care of the planet's being? The disruptive difference of land art compared to traditional works of art offers emblematic spaces for sustainable educational design, starting from the landscape that is no longer represented but is itself a living, tangible work, the expression of an active and direct relationship, both on the part of the author and the spectator. Land art lends itself to alternative modes of fruition, to a more creative and laboratory learning, to trace fertile transdisciplinary paths, between education to the gaze, acquisition of creative and entrepreneurial skills in a green perspective and assumption of the emblematic testimonial value of the work.
