Finding Installation Art

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

There have been many occasions where I have turned to the Internet in the search of installation and land art within a reasonable distance that I could travel to on a whim. Now either I am not very good at using search engines, or there are not that many [if any] websites with an extensive catalogue of installation and land art. My main gripe is that catalogues that do exist do not allow you to browse by location. So, you know that saying? If you want something done do it yourself.

This is what I shall do. It will live at www.installationartscene.com, it will be sectioned by location and the emphasis will be on travelling to view these pieces. After all installation and land art is meant to be experienced in real life, and for me personally viewing a photo on a monitor just isn’t the same thing. Obviously not all installations are permanent so there are times when viewing a photo is the most you can experience, but whether past or present, large or small it will feature.

So, this is really a call for content. If you know of any pieces you think should be included in Installation Art Scene send them over!

Installation Art Scene is currently under construction. In the mean time if you know of any installation and land art around the Midlands, UK let me know and I will take a visit.
