Week 3 response
This is only my opinion, but it seemed to me that in this last reading of "Time and Narrative," the installations themselves did not seem so much installations as displays and repetition of objects. whether it be hundreds of wooden chairs iled together, iron birdcages suspended in the air, or a collection of everyday items from a certain time period, it didn't strike me so much as installation art as large collections of things put on display that held some kind of symbolic value to the artist him/herself. David Bunn, Jason Rhoades, the work was impressive sure, but I just couldn't see the connection between it and installation art. This is a topic I have trouble with myself quite a bit and so any feedback would be helpful, especially since we've had multiple class discussions on what makes installation art already.
