the long version

"Installations, the Mattress Factory's second retrospective catalog, includes artists' statements, photographs, and verbal descriptions of the eighty-seven site-specific works presented during the 1990s. Featuring works by such world-renowned artists as Kiki Smith, John Cage, Ann Hamilton, Greer Lankton, and many others, Installations provides an examination of the philosophical and historical context of installation art, the psychological effect of installations on both artists and viewers, and the role the museum has played in fostering the creative process. A foreword by Sheena Wagstaff and essays by Robert Hobbs, Rita Carter, and Buzz Spector add depth to this remarkable collection."--BOOK JACKET.
