From Library Journal:
When most people think of installation art, they assume it must be radical, abstract, and nearly incomprehensible. However, as a means of communication, it is unusually holistic and direct, and it is perhaps the oldest style of art, dating back to the Neolithic. Literally blurring boundaries?of the viewer/viewed and of the materials used?installation art stimulates the total human being, making viewing a transformative process. Difficult as it is to collect such art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego, has been doing just that for several decades. This catalog is a long-needed retrospective of exhibitions and permanent pieces held at the museum. Thanks to watchful curators such as Ron Onorato, the collection is full of now-classic works and important names from Robert Grosvenor and Vito Acconci to Bill Viola and Ann Hamilton. With few titles doing justice to the genre, this volume will be of lasting importance. For any library concerned with contemporary art.?Susan M. Olcott, Columbus Coll. of Art & Design, OH

Book Description paperback. Condition: Neu. Neu -Weit davon entfernt die neueste Bewegung oder eine neue Entwicklung in der zeitgenössischen Kunst zu sein, ist die Installationskunst nur die jüngste Manifestation der ältesten Kunsttradition, die bis zu den prähistorischen Malereien an den Höhlenwänden von Lascaux zurückreicht. Grundlegende Voraussetzungen für diese Arbeiten sind die Einbeziehung eines realen Ortes, und die Verbindung zu bestehenden Gegebenheiten - seien sie visuell, historisch oder sozial - und oft auch die Überwindung traditioneller Kunstgrenzen. Die Installationskunst entfaltet ihre ästhetische Wirkung dadurch, dass sie Teil der realen Erfahrung des Publikums wird. »Blurring the Boundaries« untersucht das Thema Installationskunst anhand der ständigen Sammlung und des Ausstellungsbestands des Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego. Bereits seit den 1960er Jahren fördert dieses Museum Installationskunst.
