Field Reports: Documents & Strategies From Land Arts of the American West February 11, 2009

This exhibit examines new developments in the study of landscape with documents and strategies produced by Land Arts of the American West, a field program that combines art practices with the broader overlays of ecology, archeology, geography, performance, architecture and science. Creating work both on site and in the studio, these interdisciplinary investigations encompass the natural forces that shape the land and the social and cultural dynamics that define place. This exhibition, which will include documents, photographs and videos, was organized by Chris Taylor, director of Land Arts of the American West at Texas Tech University.
