Discussion question
For your Initial Discussion Board Post answer the following:
Review the Land Art sites that we looked at this week and select one work to focus on. Feel free to explore Dia Sites, this Atlas Obscura article ‘A Tour of Spectacular 1970s Art Made From the Landscape Itself‘ or this Artland Magazine article ‘Top 10 Land Art and Earthwork Pioneers’ to find a site that qualifies!
- If you could choose one Land Art site to visit which one would it be and why?
- What do you find most compelling or interesting about this work?
- Include 2-3 images of the installation, as well as the artist’s name, title of the work, location, year and any other relevant materials.
- Land Acknowledgement, look up the geographic area (city, state or just state) that the Land Art was created on and name the indigenous people that once cared for that land. Use this website to discover that information: https://native-land.ca
- You are packing a picnic for this trip so tell us what you are going to eat while you are there!
Shorter response this week to allow time for Curatorial Project – use 250 words or less.
