"From the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s, projected installations helped to create a new language of art-making. By transforming traditionally static viewing spaces into active participatory fields, experiments with the moving image in those decades dramatically expanded the parameters of modern art, producing some of the most significant moving image installations in modern art history. Since that time, the projected image has become a prominent feature of contemporary art-making, and the incorporation of large-scale moving images by artists into installations now has a rich history. But due to the ephemeral nature of the original art works, many classic installations, while remembered, have not been widely seen." - Publisher.
