AKENATON / DOC/K/S (F): - The meaning determines first of all the material and the size.
Lilian A. BELL (USA): - Size and material is determined by the concept.
Dmitry BULATOV (RUS): - Installations made without size and materials are also possible.

Marcello DIOTALLEVI (I): - All sizes and all materials are good.
György GALÁNTAI (H): - Concept, intention and interest. If the artist only wants to be able to see his/her concept, it may as well be realized in virtual space, in digital images without size and material. If the customer wants to own it, in that case, intention and interest are the determinant factors.
James JOHNSON (USA): - The size and material of an installation is determined by the elements of the installation, the space in which it is to exist and the limits of the medium of its realization, as well as the original conception / inspiration.
Luca MITI (I): - By a lot of factors: possibilities of the artist, possibilities of the place, apart from, of course, the will of the artist and feedback of the place.
Emilio MORANDI (I): - By any form or dimension in dialectic relation to reach a creative stimulus.
