Lee Ufan site specific contemporary art at Castello di Ama| 2015

Title: Topos (Excavated)
In Topos (Excavated), Lee Ufan has transformed one of the wine cellars at Ama into an immersive installation that turns on the relationship between the resonant context of the 14th century architecture and the visual language developed by the artist.

Ama is a small hamlet nestled in the Chianti hills: it is located in the town of Gaiole in Chianti in the province of Siena amidst vineyards, olive groves, and forests. The Castello di Ama winery is renowned internationally as one of the world’s best, as well as the site of one of the most important contemporary collections of site-specific works of art. The winery was established in 1972, as the result of the passion of four Roman families, and boasts a total surface area of nearly 230 hectares, of which 80 are dedicated to vineyard cultivation and 40 to olive trees, at an average altitude of 480 meters. The winery’s production of approximately 300 thousand bottles a year comes exclusively from its own vineyards and finds its arechetypal expression in Castello di Ama, an authentic ambassador of Chianti Classico.
