Immerse yourself in the thought-provoking and sometimes bewildering artworks featured in Installation Art. This artistic genre rejects the passive viewing of framed artwork and encourages an interactive and often theatrical experience that draws the viewer into the artwork and sometimes even transforms the viewer into part of the piece. Marvel at a room repurposed into a giant musical instrument, imagine pressing into walls quilted in fabric, or feel the excitement of jumping in a giant plastic balloon. The artists featured in Installation Art make use of both museum space and unexpected locations, such as parks, retail shops, and even metro stations to create new realities through the manipulation of all aspects of one's environment--sight, sound, space, light and touch. Includes artists' conceptual drawings.
