International Journal of Education & the Arts, 17(21). Retrieved from http://www.ijea.org/v17n21/. Abstract The basis for my article is how, and if, a collaborative land art project can provide opportunities for such co-creating as suggested in the national framework plan for preschools, which explicitly states the child as a co-creator of a shared expressive culture. I further wish to propose land art as a meaningful cultural practice, closely connected to children’s physical awareness and sense of place. In doing so, I use the concepts of sensation, making and knowledge, exploring them as mutually beneficial. The way I worked to explore these matters, was to initiate and conduct a land art project in an open air preschool. I was with a group of children for several days. Adults and children worked together to make a shape, in a landscape well known to the children. While initiating, suggesting and participating, I experienced and observed the children’s interaction with the land, with forms of knowledge and with each other. IJEA Vol. 17 No. 21 - http://www.ijea.org/v17n21/ 2 My experiences and observations, that constitute my data from this project, are composed into a story.

Troublemakers unearths the history of land art in the tumultuous late 1960s and early 1970s. The film features a cadre of renegade New York artists that sought to transcend the limitations of paint- ing and sculpture by producing earthworks on a monumental scale in the desolate desert spaces of the American southwest. Today these works remain impressive not only for the sheer audacity of their makers but also for their out-sized ambitions to break free from traditional norms.

Size, Scale and the Imaginary in the Work of Land Artists Michael Heizer, Walter De Maria and Dennis Oppenheim
Larger than life: size, scale and the imaginary in the work of Land Artists Michael Heizer, Walter De Maria and Dennis Oppenheim © Michael Albert Hedger A thesis in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Art History and Art Education UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES | Art & Design August 2014 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Hedger First name: Michael Other name/s: Albert Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: Ph.D. School: Art History and Education Faculty: Art & Design Title: Larger than life: size, scale and the imaginary in the work of Land Artists Michael Heizer, Walter De Maria and Dennis Oppenheim Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Conventionally understood to be gigantic interventions in remote sites such as the deserts of Utah and Nevada, and packed with characteristics of "romance", "adventure" and "masculinity", Land Art (as this thesis shows) is a far more nuanced phenomenon. Through an examination of the work of three seminal artists: Michael Heizer (b. 1944), Dennis Oppenheim (1938-2011) and Walter De Maria (1935-2013), the thesis argues for an expanded reading of Land Art; one that recognizes the significance of size and scale but which takes a new view of these essential elements. This is achieved first by the introduction of the "imaginary" into the discourse on Land Art through two major literary texts, Swift's Gulliver's Travels (1726) and Shelley's sonnet Ozymandias (1818)- works that, in addition to size and scale, negotiate presence and absence, the whimsical and fantastic, longevity and death, in ways that strongly resonate with Heizer, De Maria and especially Oppenheim.

Sternberg Press / Style Sheet
STERNBERG PRESS / STYLE SHEET • Titles: First and all significant words in text/essay titles are capitalized • Titles of books, artworks, films, musical albums etc. are italicized • Titles of exhibitions, essays, poems, songs, short stories, etc. appear within double quotation marks (“ ”) • Punctuation: following American standards, punctuation appears within the quotation marks (with the exception of colons or semi-colons, i.e. “free speech”:). Also consistent with American standards, a serial comma is used in a phrase with three or more elements, preceding an “and,” “or,” etc.: “There were lectures, performances, and screenings.” • Quoted material: All quotes appear within double (“ ”) quotation marks. The same is the case with words used by an author in a pejorative (critical/disbelieving/sardonic) way, i.e. I became a “serious” artist. Single quotations appear only when there is a quotation within a quotation. Quotations within block quotations should be contained with double quotation marks. • Foreign words and words that need special emphasis are italicized, although the use of italics for emphasis should be done sparingly. • Artistic/Architectural styles: Names of specific artistic styles are uppercased unless they are used in a context that does not refer to their specific art-historical meaning, however “modernism” is always lowercase. Example 1: “Her piece was characteristically minimalistic.” Example 2: “This sculpture bears all the markings of the Minimalist movement.” • Dates/Years: Consistent with American format: February 6, 2005 / 1960s / 1990 / centuries are spelled out, i.e. the twentieth century, and hyphenated when used as an adjective, i.e. twentieth-century architecture. Abbreviated decades are written with an apostrophe (not single quotation mark) (i.e., ’60s).

Site Specifics: Modernist Mediums in Modern Places
Site Specifics: Modernist Mediums in Modern Places Eugene Vydrin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Eugene Vydrin All rights reserved ABSTRACT Site Specifics: Modernist Mediums in Modern Places Eugene Vydrin This dissertation argues that the modernist doctrine of medium specificity, the idea that the autonomy of the arts arises from artworks' investigation of the properties and limits of their materials, grounds artistic production in the place where it was produced. The identity of artistic mediums (writing, painting, sculpture, and land art) depends on their literal placement in physical, geographic environments. Medium specificity requires site specificity. In the aesthetic, art-historical discourses I consider — Gertrude Stein's account of Cubism, Soviet avant-garde writings on Constructivism, Robert Smithson's texts on landscape, earth art, and Minimalism — the mediums of art-making are located in places that serve simultaneously as construction sites, sources of raw materials, and models of aesthetic form. They are both the subject of representation and the representational means, the work's content, form, and substance. Art derives its physical properties, its subject matter, and its formal laws from the geography, topography, and geology of the sites at which it is made. Stein retroactively models Picasso's Cubism (and her own plays) on the spatial juxtaposition of houses and mountains in the Spanish landscape. Shklovsky discovers Constructivist principles (and those of his own formalist aesthetics) in the daily life of post-revolutionary St. Petersburg. Smithson finds a model for earth art and for the recovery of history from universal entropy in the “dialectical landscape” of Central Park.

Tang: Copyright in the Expanded Field COPYRIGHT IN THE EXPANDED FIELD' Xiyin Tang* Intellectual property ("IP") law and the art forms it is meant to protect are expanding. In our information age, artists hoping to assert their rightsfrequently assert a combination of trademark,copyright, and right of publicity or moral rights claims in order to maximize their chances of success. This Article looks beyond IP law to some of its more unlikely complements-tort and property law-as a viable means of redress for artists who may be ineligible for copyright protection. Specifically, recent cases involving a specific form of hybrid art-land art, or "site specific art"-have determinedly stripped artists of either their moral rights or copyright claims. Thus, I suggest looking to the laws of trespass and nuisance as new ways of thinking about the same problem: How do we balance public rights in our shared artworks with private rights of control? Surprisingly, this Article suggests that applying nuisance law's balancing test has much in common with the four-factor balancing test of copyright's fair use doctrine.

Exploring Art Made in Nature with Nature. LAND ART
OHS Visual Arts Spring 2020 Week of April 20-24 Exploring Art made in Nature with Nature. LAND ART. EARTHWORKS. EARTH ART Land art, EarthArt and Earthworks are all names for an art movement in which the landscape and the work of art are linked together and give meaning to each other. It is also defined by time, the work is made and left outside in nature and meant to be temporary and will last only as long as the natural world determines. Land Art, a term coined by the artist Robert Smithson, is a movement that occurred in the U.S. during the late 1960s and during the 1970sHowever, the art form has existed for thousands of years. Land Art is a work of art created with and embodied by the physical landscape. The movement sought to take art out of museums and set it within a natural context. Many works of Land Art are temporary or left to change with the elements of nature. Ever made a Rock Cairn? Artist Inquiry Andy Goldsworthy : Born in 1956.
