Land And Environmental Art

Kastner sketches the complex relationship with the land in a survey of Land Art from its genesis in the counter-cultural practices of the 1960s through to contemporary Environmental Art. Wallis locates the aesthetic and critical characteristics of Land and Environmental Art and situates them within an art historical context. With extended captions, key works are compiled by theme and complemented by critical texts, artists’ statements, interviews and commentaries corresponding with the thematic division of the works.
