One of the most important arguments for concentrating on spatial multimedia installation art as context of photography is the interesting discrepancy between the commonly mentioned characteristic of places in photographs and theories of place in installation art. Photography tends to be characterized as a medium that refers to places elsewhere or to places in the past. By contrast, much installation art is defined as a medium of the here and now. What happens when both media are juxtaposed or combined in a work of art is shown by the work of the American artist Gordon Matta-Clark. In some of Matta-Clark's works, photography is part of his spatial installations, or his installations are transformed into photographic collages, or photographs are transformed into objects. Moreover, his work addresses experiences of place in architecture, photography, installation art, and performances.

Excerpt is from Helen Westgeest's Introduction to Take Place: Photography and Place from Multiple Perspectives.

Take Place

Photography and Place from Multiple Perspectives

Edited by Helen Westgeest. Text by Kitty Zijlmans, Thomas Crow, Barbara Hooper, Caroline van Eck.

For a medium so potentially “disembodied” and transparent, photography can offer a unique capacity to concretize place, especially when used in art installations in which photographs may be assembled from numerous sources and locations. Take Place investigates this particular implementation of photography through various scholarly disciplines—art history, photography theory, the history of architecture and social geography—and through creative disciplines such as installation art, performance, architecture and especially multimedia projects. Take Place offers points of departure for the study of photography as it is deployed within other media.
