5. • WHAT IS LAND ART OR ART IN LANDSCAPE?
Land art, is an art movement which emerged in the United States in the late
1960s and early 1970s, in which landscape and the work of art are
indistinguishably linked.
Land art is an art form that is created in nature using natural materials such as bed
rock, boulders, stones, logs, branches, leaves and water.
In Art in Landscape , sculptures are not placed in the landscape; rather, the
landscape is the means of their creation.
The works of art frequently exist in the open, located well away from civilization,
left to change and erode under natural conditions. These kind of art called site
specific sculpture, designed for a particular outdoor location.

drawing
Some artists like Javacheff Christo and Jeanne-Claude ( French artists) created
environmental works of art.
The purpose of their art, they contend, is simply to create works of art or joy and
beauty and to create new ways of seeing familiar landscapes.

7. The works of installation by artists Javacheff Christo and Jeanne-Claude show the untapped
potential of spatial experience not often seen in more purely functional or purely artistic
works of design.

something, in a
field or street, it
may vanish but
it’s part of the
history of those
places,”

15. SPIRAL JETTY by Robert Irving Smithson
An earthwork sculpture built by Robert Smithson in the Great Salt Lake only reemerges
during drought.

16. • Built during a drought by Robert
Smithson, once the water levels returned
to normal the spiral was then submerged
for three decades, reemerging during a
drought in 2004.
• The black basalt rocks are now covered
with white salt coatings, and the water
has a pink hue to it. The jetty disappears
if the lake level is higher than 4,197 feet,
and currently the jetty is again in danger
of disappearing once again.
• Built in 1970 of mud, salt crystals,
basalt, and dirt, the Spiral Jetty is 1500
feet long and extends far out into the
Great Salt Lake.

Art on Sand

23. Temporary land art, using natural materials to create massive scale drawings on earth, sand
and ice. His sculptures are not placed in the landscape, rather, the landscape are the means of
their creation. Often aerial photography or video is needed to fully grasp the final work.

24. In recent years, public art has increasingly begun to expand in scope and application —
The public art have often been realized in response to creatively engaging a
community’s sense of ‘place’ or ‘wellbeing’ in society.
Public spaces and art in it is a social health related to environmental design. It
contributes to community health and also contributes in the following-
• Social inclusion and social cohesion
• Physical qualities/design, facilities, amenities
• Aesthetics
• Physical and social context
• Accessibility and safety
• Economics, funding, and employment
• Creativity and art
• Identity and vision
• One of such examples of social integration in form of public art is –

environment has been steadily deteriorating over the decades.
It is not an uncommon sight to see beaches and the sides of
roads strewn with litter.
For the installation, 2000
square meters of plastic net
was fixed by the uncapped
mouth of upturned crafted 1
litre bottles.
