By Art21
Format:Paperback
Was very useful in offereing a clear study of installation art and how this term is interpreted. Every aspect was tackled and thoroughly explored with a great deal of insight. Good grounding in all the problems of new media and approaches used in contemporary exhibitions. This would be a good book to buy and read if only one book was wanted on this subject. Well written and fascinating.

Clear, well written History of the Genre 2 Nov 2011
By Denise - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I found this book to be a well-written, clear explanation of the history of installation art from as early as the surrealists to the date it was published. Some of the images are too small to get a better feel for the installations they are depicting, but the descriptions of these installations are usually detailed enough for a good idea. This book along with "From Margin to Center" pretty well covers the subject up through 2004. Something needs to be written to capture the amazing works that have been happening since then. I'm waiting for that to happen.
Good introduction to installation art 12 April 2011
By Tom - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
While not comprehensive by any means, this book is a great starting point for developing a vocabulary to distinguish various strategies employed by installation artists.
