Summary/Abstract: The article seeks to address the description and analysis of a complexly constructed object such as an art installation. Different types of installations are explored, as they are becoming more and more popular in contemporary art. The methods used were chosen so that to be adequate to the objects under consideration. Art installations being complex works, the methods of classical art studies faced certain difficulties in their description and analysis, and mainly in revealing and explaining the mechanisms behind the functioning of different installations. Drawing lessons from those analyses, contemporary art studies had to expand and summarise their categories and concepts so that to be able to go from a descriptive and explanatory model to a prognostic one in the analysis of the contemporary “hybrid fruits” of the art of imagery.
