Cannocchiale ottico percorribile was designed by the artist for the 1968 Milan Triennale, dedicated to the theme of the Grande Numero, in the never-realised exhibition Interventi nel paesaggio. Inside this project artworks by young artists should have been exposed in town and city centers to offer an artistic vision of the world in scale with the physical environment. 
In the oral reconstruction provided by his wife Franca Scheggi Dall’Acqua, in support of the two photographs of the project, the optical telescope should have been  made in chromed steel and in collaboration with Italsider. Scheggi of this project produced a maquette, also in chromed steel. The Cannocchiale ottico percorribile was to be shown in Florence, between the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the Baptistery, in line with Via de ‘Calzaiuoli and Via dei Martelli. The dimensions hypothesized by the artist had to be such as to accommodate about a man of medium height in it, who could have been following the inside path in all its lenght. The work unravels itself in a zigzag and irregular shape, such as to produce an effect of disorientation on the viewer, increased by a very dramatic interior lighting; in addition responding to the theme of the exhibition inside the Triennale it was also a reflection on the Florentine Renaissance perspective, made explicit with its placing in the square in Florence (Scheggi was a native of the city and soaked in humanities); but we can also place it among the top experiences of Paolo Scheggi related to the concept of tunnel and path in the dark that would then be developed in the following years, bringing us the environment ONDOSA (as reported in the bibliographies and biographies of the artist) or ONDOSA NERA (as shown on the projects of the artist himself) otherwise made for the show Eurodomus in Milan, 1970, and then destroyed.

Meteorite al contrario (2010) is the launch into space of a normal stone of medium size, which would constitute a kind of meteorite, according to a trajectory opposite the one that usually leads an asteroid to accidentally stumble on our planet. With this project, in addition a to normal challenging of the scientific premises that describes the trajectory and the ablation with the atmosphere of an extraterrestrial impact directly on the ground, the artist is trying to subvert the classic paradigm of contemporary technology: the maximum technology in minimum space, which in this case would be the minimum technology in maximum “space”. The project is closely related to the poetic of the artist, since long time resident in Paris, and it is referable to a system of signs and meanings, an interest in the universe that started with a work in progres born in 1999 entitled precisely Space, which in more than ten years has involved Bertocchi in the creation of a parallel universe: around 3000 images of galaxies and planets invented by the artist.

On this occasion the fish goes through a maze made up of fishing nets to end up inexorably in the death chamber, where they are harpooned and killed. The action has been designed by the artist as a game of reversing roles, in which the men take the place of the tuna and unaware they are ready to participate to the last moment of their life, just waiting to be slaughtered by other men. It is a transposition of the man from hunter to prey, from victim to victimizer, an inversion that creates alienation and a violent trauma. All these elements lead the viewer to a possible kind of visionary hallucination, where the role of Presicce is no longer that of the protagonist of his own performance but of an expert Director of expert careful towards the construction of a new appearance.

Installation in 2 parts, 2009. Venice, Basin of the Arsenale, Gaggiandre, and Tese delle Vergini, Italian Pavilion.

Environmental dimensions. Light, water, photography, sound.

A) Outside: A semi-submerged photographic image of 60x20m. occupies the stretch of water of one of two ancient covered basins of the Arsenale. The image represents simultaneously two circles of water and the symbol of Infinity. A stone thrown in water has created the splitting of the first cell, giving rise to a multiplicative process. The photographic act freezes the action and renders eternal the instant and the becoming of time, Past and present, stasis and change, finite and infinite are simultaneously present: the place is real and virtual at the same time.

B) Inside: 12 light-boxes placed in the niches of the left wall of the Theater of the Virgin transform the wall in a great self-illuminating façade. Light and architecture are welded into a single radiating structure that transmits light within the building. On the floor in front, a water tank of about 16×16 m. reflects the architecture of light, generating the virtual image space. The still surface of the water is perturbed by the undulatory motion of concentric waves that propagate rhythmically from the center of the tank. The vibration of this liquid surface corresponds with the intangible sounds diffused into the great emptiness of the room: visual and sound waves interact, creating the vibrating movement of the water.

Il fiore e la pietra is a project of a urban sculpture for square in Turin, Italy. It was presented by the artist, on invitation by Gianni Romano, at the contest for young artists «Premio Artegiovane/Torino Incontra. Una porta per Torino» curated by Guido Curto, 6th Edition, 2002.
The theme draws its first inspiration from B.C. comics by Johnny Hart: a frail flower dialogues with a stone. The ambiguity between solidity and frailty is symbolically set aside the then very adverse situation of FIAT, the most important manufacturing company of Turin, and the problem of the blue collar sleeping area.
The environment in which the project was developed is typical of a still common situation in contemporary art: conceived to apply to a contest, it was never realized, as well as all the other projects presented, due to lack of funds.

Looking for the island is a video project dedicated to the Garbage Patch, an ‘island “dump” located in the Pacific Ocean that began to form around 1950. This particular island, composed of polymers in the form of bottles, packaging, networks and other kinds of junk, is moved constantly by ocean waves that wear the matter down by reducing it to tiny particles dissolved in water. The floating mass of “particle waste”, which apparently resembles plankton becomes food for fish and birds, reintroduced into our food chain and consequently in our bodies.
The artists projects is based right on this contrast between natural and artificial, landscape and industry; through the video they want to document the journey of these plastic particles that paradoxically become feed for fishes, and therefore food for human beings. Challenging the common perception of this place, that is often considered improperly as a real island, this video wanted to place a videocamera waving slowly inside the water, extending and shortening the length of the take from time to time through these fragments of memory. The artists realised specifically for MoRE a series of watercolors that represent the Garbage Patch; moreover, they donated two charts, part of the project, that analyze the ocean and its currents. All the five sketches present a circular design that reminds, indeed, the island or cloud of garbage, while the lines in subtle colors seem to remind a rarefied and immaterial universe The artists were invited to realise this project by Fondazione Hermes in 2007, but it wasn’t selected in the end. It's still unrealized due lack of funds.

The project was submitted to the commission for the International Competition SPAZIO/MAXXI due percento, published in October 2008, for the creation of two works of art for the MAXXI Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo, Rome: one had to be designed for the atrium of the museum and another one for the outdoor areas. 
The light work Esser Spazio had to be placed outside the MAXXI Museum, integrating the architectural environment with discretion and inhabiting the final steps of the square above the entrance to the museum. Uberti, coherent with its artistic research which often aims at drawing symbolic shapes and signs on the architectural and urban public space – sometimes with effects of displacement, sometimes to emphasize the characteristics and peculiarities of the place - in this case suggested a sentence, a motto and at the same time a call, asking the public to actively participate in the construction of the museum: then reflecting on the meaning of this new space for contemporary art, on its role in respect to the culture, but also on the shape of the city itself. The project was submitted to the commission for the International Competition SPAZIO/MAXXI due percento, published in October 2008 by the Provveditorato interregionale per le opere pubbliche per il Lazio, l’Abruzzo e la Sardegna, in agreement with the PARC Direzione generale per la qualità e la tutela del paesaggio, l’architettura e l’arte contemporanee.

is proposed by the artist the following year with some changes for the P.A.V. (Parco d’Arte Vivente) of Turin. The project, originally thought to be placed inside a wood, consists in the facade of a movie theatre outlined in black on a white background, on a 4 x 3 meters wing made of painted bricks (as the artist explains, “a big A4 paper sheet”). The facade recalls a liberty-decò style building, with the introduction of eclectic elements, and it refers to a movie theatre the artist saw in Antananarivo, Madagascar. To enter the theatre the audience needs to move around the wall, beyond which are placed four seats in concrete destined to be covered with moss. The seats address the landscape instead of the wall, that therefore becomes a wing and hides the watchers. Even though the project won the competition, it was not realised in the end because it was not possible to find an agreement with the neighbour that lived nearby the place that was identified as the most suitable for the realization and for other logistic and organizational reasons.

The first two projects of the same title, TRITON, deal, on a different level of detail, with the same event that, mainly involving sound, designed for a duration of seven days, would have involved the entire city of Bonn, starting from the river, on which he passed on a barge that housed the orchestra. It would have been a form of homage to the great composer Beethoven not only in terms of sound/ environment, but also from a visual point of view, considering that in the project this aspect is lagerly considered.

LA LUCE DEL SUONO, a project for “a concert of lights and sounds” that would have involved a vast area of the Danube river and nearby land, conceived by Mosconi in 1984 and presented for the 1986 edition of the festival “Ars Electronica” in Linz, is the result of the further development of a core part of the same imaginative unit that shaped TRITON.

the other one donated to MoRE, Lorenzo Scotto di Luzio works on the opposites, inserting in a totally neutral setting – a distinctive trait of the Eastern world – an element with a strong “western” connotation, that represent the commerce and that clashes with the unspoiled landscape of the desert. In the idea of Scotto di Luzio, the staircase is defunctionalized and will not need any maintenance, it should deteriorate and become a relic, an abandoned monument, almost “commemorative” of a past world. Even here the artist hides a paradox, perhaps a joke: the celebration of the western cult just inside the eastern world, two concepts and two cultures that come together to create a sort of epiphany of the vision, just like a “mirage” in the desert. The artist, in the review of the project, calls it a “bachelor machine”, a sterile and unproductive device, a sort of ready-made on a large-scale, defunctionalized and completely out of context, designed not to be placed in the hall of a museum but in the desert, an aseptic and neutral space.

Roue de bicyclette, a ready-made exhibited in several museums all around the world (Centre Pompidou in Paris, Tate Gallery in London, Moma in NY...). Considering that his work is a reproduction itself, a copy of the lost original, the idea of a “posthumous homage-enrichment” is really close to Duchamp spirit. The introduction of a credit card establishes a link with other artist who changed the art world, investigating the role of money and material goods, such as Dali (Avida Dollars) but above all Wharol. There is a recreational element in this gadget: the artist took inspiration from the playing cards that children put on their bikes to simulate the sound of an engine. The kit, made of a copy of the artist’s credit card and a clothes peg to decorate Duchamp’s work according to Bonacorsi’s instructions, is sold apart in the museum shop.
This work was planned by the artist on the occasion of the re-opening of Centre Pompidou collections in 2000, but he never proposed it to the museum: a typical development of Bonacorsi’s work, really influenced by the concept of  dépense.

Finestre since its first conception, has undergone several revisions and can be considered only partially realised. The idea of opening windows on adjoining rooms to offer the spectators an unusual continuity of vision between contiguous spaces is conceived initially as a real demolition of the walls of the building hosting one of the seats of Vivita 2 Gallery of Ciotti and Camillo D'Afflitto in Florence (adjacent to an old abandoned cinema). This idea was abandoned for technical and practical difficulties, and in January 1990 the artist realized a different version of the project (inside Vivita 1 gallery in Florence) by exhibiting on the walls of the gallery pictures of the adjoining rooms that were recessed inside the walls that should have been tore down to produce a kind of trompe l’oeil effect (as can be seen in an undated sketch found among the artist's papers that probably dates back to 1989).

In 2000 Pietroiusti prepares the draft of a project for a "Museum of forgotten artists”; the idea was to look for artists which were very valuable but forgotten, in order to write an alternative history of italian contemporary art for the last three decades. This project was never realized, but it is possible to find similarities with some other projects realized by the artist. Coherently with his research on the art system, Pietroiusti has indeed imagined an exhibition of artists who gave up working. This idea too is linked to the enquiry on the social role of the artist and his function; for this reason, the idea described in a notebook comes together with a later note that refers to an exhibition of artists that are not recognized by the system, but by a limited and non influential number of people or even just one single person, simply because they produced some art works. Through this project Pietroiusti underlines the importance of one element of the system, that is the necessity to be recognized as an artist, an event that in most cases requires a first acknowledgement by the members of the system itself, a theme on which the artists returns with the institution of a Museum of exiled Italian contemporary art, an itinerant museum without a place that collects marginal and ignored artistic experiences. The project of an exhibition of artists who gave up working was then partially realized thanks to the collaboration with two curators, M. Clark and M. Dickenson, on the occasion of the exhibition democracy! Socially Engaged Art at London's Royal College of Arts in May 2000.
