Scale of one's environment has a huge impact on how we perceive the world a constantly evolving process of interaction and observation that starts during everybody's first years as a small child in a world scaled for adults. Overs ze features the best of installation art on a grand scale all around the world. These enormous pieces encourage imagination in new ways. The designers, sculptors, and installation artists featured in these pages discuss considerations such as weather, wind flow, method of installation, time constraints, budgets, transportation of the piece to the site, materials used and their durability, and the process of site selection. The finished projects interact in symbiotic or contrasting methods with their surroundings in carefully controlled ways to create new spatial meanings. Includes interviews with, among others, Inges Idee, Zhang Huan Studio, Karina Smigla-Bobinski, Cl mence Eliard, Elise Morin, Max Streicher, Studio Florentijn Hofman, and Radford Wallis.
