It also considers the procedural, political, and ideological positions of artists from the mid-twentieth century to the present, drawing on the author's own experiences as a practitioner and critic.
Through engaging narratives and insightful analysis, Installation and the Moving Image sheds light on the complex relationships between art, film, and installation. The book raises essential questions about the role of the artist in this context, leaving readers to ponder the significance of moving-image installation for contemporary practice.
