The installation is an artistic practice that is hard to pigeon-hole as it employs a variety of methods, materials and procedures. Reconstructing its history means retracing the crucial stages in a course of action that, from the avant-gardes on, radically changed the concept of space in contemporary art in terms of "immersing yourself" and proposed a new relationship with the onlooker.
