Summary:

"Against the background of an increasingly globalised world, Land Art and the waves it has set in motion are gaining new esteem. Climate change and major natural catastrophes allow is to follow vigilantly the signals from which artists conceive and use nature as creative material. Beginning with the Land Art primarily initiated by American artists in the 1960s, the exhibition and the catalogue mark its exciting development in America, Europe and Asia and cover the entire spectrum right up to the most modern approaches in computer animation. Using sketches, drawings, documents, models, photographs, and video recordings, the 120 exhibits by internationally known artists such as Christo, Agnes Denes, Hamish Fulton, Richard Long and Robert Smithson give a broad view of Land Art for the first time ever."--P [4] of cover.
