LAND ART

Higgie looks at Land Art, an art movement. It is a loose, conceptually led movement that bloomed in the 1960s and 1970s, when artists took their work off the gallery walls to protest the commercialization of art. But myriad artists not associated with the movement have long employed nature for various ends. How modern artists responded to the land was unpredictable. Land Art often intertwines with activism.
