Description
Summary:Since its inception in the 1960s, the earth art movement has sought to make visible the elusive presence of nature. Though most often associated with monumental land-based sculptures, earth art encompasses a wide range of media, from sculpture, body art performances, and installations to photographic interventions, public protest art, and community projects. This book analyses the development of the earth art movement, arguing that very different artists are connected through their elucidation of the earth as a domain of ethical concern.
