Art Environments

ART ENVIRONMENTS Art environments are immobile constructions or decorative assemblages that are monumental in scale or number of components. They may be interior or exterior, and they typically include elements of sculpture, architecture, bas-relief assemblage, or landscape architecture, or a combination thereof. Such composite works owe less allegiance to folk, popular, or mainstream art traditions and the desire to produce anything functional or marketable than they do to personal and cultural experiences, the availability of materials, and a desire for individual creative expression. They are generally intended to be viewed in their entirety rather than as a grouping of discrete works.
