Then, the essay will demonstrate Michael Fried's(1939-) dissection on "objecthood" and "theatricality" to help readers understand the inner heredity (modernist formalist critique) of installations, to acknowledge the inherently progressive nature of installation art that was derived from its historical origin.Through explaining the dialectical relations between installation and theater, the essay will further address the limitations of Fried's view on minimalism that resulted in the subjugation of positive significances of "theatricality" within its theoretical system Thereby, the essay will identify the positive significances of "theatricality" primarily in spatial related practices within the scope of contemporary art.
