Three Parameters of Installation Art

 Anne Ring Petersen, Installation Art, pg. 41-45 

 

Activating Space and Context

       Elements in interplay with space, creating a heightened sense of the space

       Context: Institutional or makeshift; confrontational, neutral, or unifying

 


 

 


 

 

Stretching the work in time

       Instantaneous viewing vs. moving through

 


 

Phenomenological Focus

       No separation of space

       Viewer’s body is within the art

       Experience may be familiar, but altered to a subtle or profound degree

 


 

Beyond space

       The installation as set, activating activity

       Time and movement become cinematic, dreamlike in character

 


Awareness is altered, collaborative participation happens intuitively
