Summary/Abstract: In the present study, I focus on the diverse manifestations and aesthetic consequences of travel in the work of some artists that may nevertheless represent a vast variety of where such artistic results, connected to the experience of travel, may point to. Therefore, I am interested in what artists can “do” with the various experiences collected in a journey and how they influence their pieces and their approach to art and its working.
