Read MoreAs a one-to-one stand-in for reality, a transformation of space, or an immersive, sensory experience, an installation can communicate in ways that a single painting or sculpture just can’t do. In its embrace of multiple mediums – painting, sculpture, collage, video, photography, light, sound, and more – and its – oftentimes site-specific – entanglement with space, installation presents many challenges to the gallerist, the collector, and the historian. What happens to an installation when the exhibition is over? How do you collect an installation? How can it be displayed again? The following list highlights installations and environments now on view – from new site-specific installations, to historic works, restaged.

Read MoreIn this video, artist Chiharu Shiota talks about her installation “The Key in the Hand” in the Japanese Pavilion at the 2015 Venice Biennale. “When people walk through here,” she says, “it’s like walking around human memories and human life.” Comprising over 180,000 keys suspended by threads of red yarn that cluster over a pair of old wooden boats, Shiota’s dazzling installation quickly became one of the most emblematic images of this year’s Biennale.
