Publisher's Description
This is the most voluminous study of earthworks currently in print. The central characters of the movement--Robert Smithson, Richard Long, and Christo--are featured alongside less well-known but equally brilliant artists. Land Art is authoritatively produced, extremely well illustrated, and edited as intelligently as this challenging movement demands.

Christo, Walter De Maria, Michael Heizer, Nancy Holt, Robert Morris, Robert Smithson, and Dennis Oppenheim, among others.
Among the many works discussed in this book are Walter De Maria's Lightening Field, Christo's Running Fence, Michael Heizer's Double Negative, Robert Smithson's The Spiral Jetty, and James Turrell's Roden Crater. Along with Gilles Tiberghien's insightful text, Land Art also includes maps locating the projects; a full index of the projects; the transcript of a discussion among Michael Heizer, Dennis Oppenheim, and Robert Smithson; and essays by Robert Morris, Nancy Holt, and Robert Smithson.
