Artist work in the field of installation and sculpture: Ernesto Neto, Tara Donovan, Tomas Saraceno and Tobias Putrih give examples of creative space, usage of materials with high availability and modular construction.
Ernesto Neto is mostly working with light, flexible fabrics in nylon or cotton resulting in spaceous installations whereas Tara Donovan uses various everyday materials such as tape, drinking straws or plastic cups to form large-scale abstract floor and wall works.”She considers patterning, configuration, and the play of light when determining the structure of her works but the final form evolves from the innate properties and structures of the material itself.”(Hammer Museum, Los Angeles 2004) Tomas Saraceno used elastic rope to realize installations like ‘Galaxies Forming ALong Filaments, Like Droplets Along the Strands of a Spider’ which I got to see in New York this year. Among Tobias Putrih’s work especially the usage of cardboard or projection screens are interesting references.
