With ties to Minimal and Conceptual art, these artists placed less emphasis on the discrete object and turned their attention to the experience of the artwork--however fleeting or permanent that might be--foregrounding natural materials and the site itself to create large-scale works located outside of typical urban art-world circuits.\u003cbr\u003eHistories of Land art have long been dominated by men, but \u003ci\u003eGroundswell: Women of Land Art\u003c\/i\u003e shifts that focus to shed new light on the vast number of earthworks by women artists. While their careers ran parallel to those of their better-known male counterparts, they have received less recognition and representation in museum presentations--until now.\u003cbr\u003eThis book includes five scholarly essays, as well as a detailed chronology, exhibition checklist and illustrated biographies of exhibition artists. \u003ci\u003eGroundswell\u003c\/i\u003e is a resource for readers interested in understanding the historical Land art movement and our own relationship to the earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtists include\u003c\/b\u003e: Lita Albuquerque, Alice Aycock, Beverly Buchanan, Agnes Denes, Maren Hassinger, Nancy Holt, Patricia Johanson, Ana Mendieta, Mary Miss, Jody Pinto, Michelle Stuart and Meg Webster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 11.2 x 9.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 07, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51764530741536,"sku":"9781636811109","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/1cab26c9d19bac1a241c8496e0386229.webp?v=1780251157","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/groundswell-women-of-land-art-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
