Installation Art and the Practices of Archivalism - David Houston (University of Exeter UK) Jones - Bog

This book engages with the recent growth in visual projects that respond to the archive, focusing in particular on installation art. Jones considers in particular the widespread nostalgia for `archival¿ media such as analogue photographs and film. He analyses the innovative strategies by which such artefacts are incorporated, examining five distinct types of archival practice: the intermedial, testimonial, personal, relational and monumentalist.
