However, Groys (2009) argues, while curation cures, at the same time it further contributes to the artwork’s illness. He argues that installation art radically changes the role and function of the exhibition space. It symbolically privatises the public space of an exhibition and is ‘designed according to the sovereign will of an individual artist’. O'Sullivan, Simon D.. 2006.

My most recent work has played with ideas about audience participation in the fiction. I am currently working on a new MHV gallery, to be opened in 2064: this time focusing on Biocapitalism. One ‘spot’ will focus on xenotransplantation. In a MHV ‘event’, the audience are asked to play the role of ‘volunteer advisers’ to discuss beliefs and behaviours toward pigs ‘pre giant-rupture’, when xenotransplantation was still legal, as well as their feelings about their own xenotransplant.

Pieces belonging to this category (visitor engagement) of Installation art shift the focus from art as a mere object to art as an instigator of dialogue. By occupying spaces so intentionally the artwork forces viewers into close interactions, so that viewing Installation art is more akin to an act of engagement than to one of contemplation.
