The Art of Richard Long

Walking serves as the foundation of Richard Long's art, transforming the act into 'artwalks' that become integral artworks. This revised edition explores Long's connection to British Romanticism, linking his work to figures like Wordsworth and Turner, while also examining contemporary movements and sculptors. The book delves into themes of gender in art, comparing Long's performance aspects with feminist and body art. It also discusses Minimal and Conceptual art influences, providing a comprehensive look at Long's impact on both land art and contemporary sculpture. Fully illustrated with updated text and notes.
