Olfactory Art and Design
我们可以轻易分享和解释清楚很多东西，然而对气味的描述和试图令他人感同身受却是件困难的事，这不可见可嗅可感之物如幽灵一般对我们情绪的影响往往超出我们想象，早在100年前敏锐的艺术家们已经开始渐次介入。
嗅觉艺术是以气味为媒介的艺术形式，这种艺术形式从1980年代逐渐开始被认可。
嗅觉艺术简史：
1919 Marcel Duchamp《巴黎的空气》（Air de Paris），将50毫升（大约是一次吸气所需的空气含量）的巴黎空气压缩在一只安瓿（安瓿最早用来盛放死者血液样本，并用来陪葬他们身边）之中，并在上面签名，使之成为一件艺术品。
在随后一系列杜尚主导的超现实主义艺术展览中，气味的确得到了运用——1938年国际超现实主义展中的咖啡烘焙味、1942年展览“超现实主义首批文献”（First Papers of Surrealism）中的雪松香气……这些嗅觉元素构成了展览表意不可或缺的媒介，与其它装置所提供的视觉经验一起形成多维的艺术欣赏空间。

When art is made new so are we
"Olfactory Art is a contemporary modality of expression in which creators
intentionally engage a very unique human sense in their practice - that
of smell. Through innovative, multidisciplinary, and aesthetical
approaches to art involving olfaction, contemporary creators are
harnessing the unique dynamics of this system of perception to
investigate, inquire, provoke and make visible, in ways that visual art
cannot, knowledge and qualities about the complex relationships of
humans, nature and culture. "
嗅觉艺术是创作者从人类独特的嗅觉感官出发的当代艺术表现形式，以创新的跨学科的以及美学路径介入嗅觉艺术，通过探寻、叩问、触发和视觉化呈现这种动态感官系统关于人、自然、文化之间的复杂关系，是单一的视觉艺术所不能。
Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) worked with decaying materials, such as earth, animal fat, blood, wax
and honey, that produced pungent and putrefying smells but advanced his
philosophical and political ideas about death and transformation.
约瑟夫·博伊斯用泥土、动物脂肪、血液、蜡和蜂蜜等材料来创造充满仪式感的艺术装置和表演现场，辛辣和腐败的气味成为观众欣赏作品时无法避开的隐形场域。通过这一充斥着嗅觉刺激与视觉奇观的美学仪式，艺术家提出关于死亡和转变的哲学思想。
沃尔特·德·玛丽亚（Walter De Maria）的装置作品同样运用了强烈的气味刺激来还原场景性体验。其1977年的作品《纽约土室》（New York Earth Room），56cm厚的深黑色泥土铺洒在197m³的展厅之中，观众在装置边缘能感受到泥土的强大视觉与嗅觉冲击力。

Peter De Cupere，安特卫普嗅觉艺术家。
Gayil Nalls (born July 17, 1953) is an American interdisciplinary artist and theorist living in New York City and Hudson Valley, New York. Her artistic practice originates in philosophical investigations of personal and collective sensory experiences, memory and identity, and often include the relationship of these experiences to disappearing ecologies. She has been a pioneer in the field of olfactory art (art that emphasizes the sense of smell), and an influential contributor to the aesthetics of crowds and human massing. Her multimedia work frequently unites scientific and technological approaches to art-making, exploring the boundaries between the two.

and Art” at the ArtSicence Interfaculty at the Royal Academy of Arts the

starting point because it requires a creative approach, that is neutral

than the sense of smell itself.
