Brief introduction of installation art

Installation art began in the 1960s, also known as "environmental art". As an art, it is related to "pop art", "minimalism" and "conceptual art" in the 1960s and 1970s. In just a few decades, installation art has become a fashion in contemporary art, and many painters and sculptors have added the title of "installation artist" to themselves. There are specialized installation art galleries in the west, such as the installation art museum in London, England, and the installation art center in Kappa Street, San Francisco, USA, which grew from one in 1983 to four in 2000. The emerging contemporary art center in new york is almost an installation art exhibition hall. In its courtyard, a compartment was specially built for outdoor installation art. The Academy of Fine Arts also began to offer installation art courses. In Britain, Huddersfield University has set up a bachelor's degree in installation art, and installation art also occupies a very important position in the exhibition of Western Museum of Contemporary Art.. Take the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art as an example. During the period from 1969 to 1996, 67 installation art exhibitions were held. Many graduate students from American art colleges have become installation artists.
