Product Description

 
 
“From its engaging, vibrant cover to the final pages mapping the museum and its surrounding building, Installations is a wonderfully designed and executed book. It succeeds both graphically and conceptually by not only chronicling the exhibitions but by providing contest that offers a greater appreciation for them and the genre.”
--Pittsburgh City Paper
 
"Because it documents the ephemeral installations presented at the Mattress Factory during the 1990s, Installations will be of central importance to anyone interested in the art of this revolutionary decade." -David Wilkins, Henry Clay Frick Department of the History of Art and Architecture, University of Pittsburgh

"Combining chronological history, reminiscences, and broad essays, this book is a valuable overview of the Mattress Factory and its contributions to contemporary installation art." -Ronald Onorato, Department of Art, University of Rhode Island

Located on Pittsburgh's North Side, and internationally recognized for the quality of its artistic and educational programs, the Mattress Factory is one of the few museums in the world that focuses exclusively on installation art. Installations is an exciting exploration of site-specific artworks by Kiki Smith, John Cage, Ann Hamilton, Greer Lankton, and many other artists from around the world. Statements by the artists, verbal descriptions of the eighty-seven works presented during the 1990s, and insightful essays on different facets of installation art add depth to this remarkable photographic record. AUTHOR BIO: Michael Olijnyk has been Curator of Exhibitions at the Mattress Factory since 1982. Barbara Luderowski founded the Mattress Factory and has been Executive/Artistic Director since 1977. Claudia Giannini, a member of the development team at the Mattress Factory, coordinated and edited this publication.
