Installation Art

This is a genre of art that you could use to extend your concepts. Documenting this process would be specific to 1.3. You need to keep good documentation for 1.3 for this. By the end of next week, we will have an adjusted checklist on 1.3 suitable for installation with photography or painting or design.

The thing that Installation Art is not necessarily, is collaborative art. Just because a group of people collaborate on a project, does not make it Installation Art. Installation Art is about making a space speak. Either giving that very specific space a meaning or using that specific space to tell it's story.

Concept is first and foremost, decorative qualities, not so much.

If this is a consideration for you, start with looking at Judy Chicago, Christo, Marcell Duchamp, Barbra Kruger, and teamlab. Your thoughts and ideas and reactions to these artists should be present on your blog.

Go back to your concept. how could it relate to a space? Is there one you are thinking of already?

Open your blog, open the tracking sheet for your class.
New post; Re-state your concept (always do this, so that it is the first thing you are considering as you work)

• Brainstorm appropriate spaces you have access to - around school, around home, that you could make "speak" with your work, OR that you could subvert. 
• Think about your work so far and record - are there three dimensional elements to it? Can you install imagery that adds to the voice of the space? 

If you are doing this properly, you should have notes and ideas, drawings that you can add to your post of ideas. 

Come to class ready to discuss your potential further progress from here. 

It is actually really easy to incorporate installation Art meaningfully into a folio for 1.4. We photographically document it.

Outcomes here would be:

• 2- 3 blog posts, which include research (use the same kind of format you used for art history 1.2, but on your own - could be a resubmission for 1.2 if you would like)
