Installations

It is common to see artists who refer to themselves as installation artists incorporate photography into their installation. It is less usual for photographers to create work that is installation. Larry's history with this dayes back to 1970 when he and Arthur ollman created an insllation exhbit that was essentially photography prints but built into a structure that made the viewer take a more acive rooll to experience the work. The installtion consisted of equilateral wood boxes twenty four inches square on each side. These wre stacked in various structural arrays similar to a childs building block construction. The triangle sides were plainted white. black and gray and monochrome photos from each artist attached to those sides. Viewers had to crawl or otherwise work their way through the structure to view the photo prints reminiscent of the contortions the artists had been forced to make in taking the photographs
