Land Art
Class description
Oriol Texidor is a sculptor and in-house tutor who often works in land art.
During these workshops he will explain what land art is and guide the students to create their own artwork.
Land art, variously known as Earth art, environmental art, and Earthworks, is an art movement that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s. As a trend, “land art” expanded boundaries of art by the materials used and the siting of the works. The materials used were often the materials of the Earth, including the soil, rocks, vegetation, and water found on-site, and the sites of the works were often distant from population centers.
