Installation art; a sculptor-based genre of artworks that are usually designed to alter the perception of space and are often site-specific. Because of it's close associations with sculptor, installation art received more acceptance from critics whenever allowed to be showcased within a museum, perhaps this was so seeing how the concepts of sculptor was so familiarized among art critics of that time. Installation art also exploited a sense of time and space, since instillation often required the use of video projections, it also associated what is called time-based media which involves video, sound, and linear/nonlinear time frames.
Nam June Paik explored this concept through Electronic Superhighway in 1995, and Video Jungle in 1977.
Shigeko Kubota was known for incorporating historical art references into her work, such as Duchampiania: Nude Descending a Staircase, 1976, which is an obvious nod to one of Marcel Duchamp's more popular works. The physical structure of the piece resembles that of a staircase with each with a monitor projecting a visual within.
