Abstract
"This paper seeks to define a potential practice for converting spaces into stages and to establish to what extent, from a designers' point of view, can the know-hows of scenography positively exert influence on exhibition design, installation, and performance art. My goal is to study how the practice of staging has adapted to new fields of design and to analyze the contemporary approaches to stage. My objective is to launch a revitalized intellectual dialogue between different disciplines on how the use of scenographic characteristics may affect the qualities of distinct design spheres. I consider that this research will potentially provide answers about the artistic expectations of the contemporary audience and its response to the modifications that occur to such and everchanging subject like culture and art. Therefore, an analysis of design factors and visual challenges is necessary to help develop a better understanding of what the contemporary stage could be. This can then be implemented on the design of various performative shows, with the hope that it will produce a positive shift in the industry."
