The word "installation" appeared in the Russian language relatively recently. It is borrowed from English vocabulary and has a variety of meanings.
Installation art
In the visual arts, this is the name for a modernist work in which ready-made parts or objects are used. For example, plastic bottles, buttons, old magazines.
They are combined in a special way and placed in space. As a result, familiar things take on new meaning.
An installation is also called an artistic method of composition. When an exhibit or their combination is placed in a hall, creating a certain structure, similar to a stage one.
Installation should not be confused with environment. Installation is just a technical moment in the creation of an exhibition composition. And environmental is a modern art form.
This is one of the most "advanced" art practices. In which a team of artists, architects, engineers creates a holistic, non-utilitarian art space.
Term for programmers
