I am in love.
With Land Art, that is.
What is land art?
A bit of an art history lesson for the people:
Land art (also known as Earth Works or Earth Art) is an art movement that began in the US around the 1960’s-1970’s, in which landscape and the work of art are inextricably linked. Sculptures are not placed in the landscape; rather the landscape is the very means of their creation. The works exist in nature and are left to change and alter with natural conditions.
A few very famous Land Art arists include: Andy Goldsworthy, Robert Smithson and Christo and Jean-Claude among others. One current Land Art artists that I love is Richard Schilling (also known as escher).
I’ll stop boring everyone with the history of it and just say….
this is something I intend to pursue.
