The Museum of lnstallation (MOI) was a unique institution, founded in 1990 in London with the remit dedicated to the research, production and dissemination of installation art. MOI positioned itself as a centre for this emergent practice through its programme of exhibitions and events and offered artists from around the world an opportunity to make work in a non commercial setting when few other institutional opportunities were available. MOI worked with Thames & Hudson to publish two volumes on installation art which surveying its history, development and key themes. These publications helped to bring the practice of Installation to a wider audience and provide a reference point for future research.
MOCA London has been working with artists to create a digital archive of MOI. Artists from the MOI era will be giving physical documentation, including invite cards, catalogues and other printed material created for their MOI project, to Tate Library's collection. The Museum of Installation Archive website will go live at this event.
