Producing Video Installations (LO1-Task3) Alice Murray

What are Installations? Installations are pieces of artists work which are constructed, created or installed in an exhibition. They can either be temporary or permanent. Many artists have been using installations as a form of art since the late 1950s/early 1960s. These forms of art include demonstrating/showing their work through videos, photographs and sometimes live action. Examples of artists which have created installations are; Maurice Benayoun Vito Acconci Lidia Chiarelli Bill Viola
