Installations

by Joe Bonomo

"The prose poems in Installations invite the reader to encounter, in one extraordinary afternoon, a series of twenty art installations where something fantastic, perhaps improbable, occurs at the intersection of installed and imagined. At the heart of this afternoon is the great, dangerous promise of mystery and renewal that greets each spectator who enters a museum. The presence of other visitors underscores the human spirit of the installations, the pooling together of persons in the sometimes confounding but always refreshing wake of great art." "A dynamic art installation creates a stage for spectator, event, and the imagination. Installations unites personal experience, suspense, and narrative - in those moments when we are forever altered by the mysterious and the enchanted."--Jacket.
