Abstract
The installation as a popular genre in contemporary art of the 20th – 21st centuries is analyzed on the proceeding of contextual changes in artistic languages of visual culture of postmodernism. The author considers the installation as a presentation field of significances, referring by the French Theory (Poststructuralism), the theme of desire and seduction, the position of the psychology of the unconscious, current communication strategies in mass culture. Installations selected for the research material demonstrate the influence of mass culture technologies on project ideas and also mark the problem of interaction between spectators and artworks, inviting to dialogue. The author traces "challenge – response" interdependency characteristic of postmodernism culture.
