Real time, real world
Nov 13, 2017 - Anna Reivilä
I think that land art is certainly one of the more physical factions of conceptual art. It means real time, real world.
As I wrote earlier, my working is usually very lonely. I travel and spend time alone in remote places and I have started to think that, is this a way of trying to turn your back on the city? If you are turning your back on the city and going to land, landscape, country, are you turning your back on people? I wonder how interested Robert Smithson etc. were interested in people. I think they were interested in individual art doer and in some kind of exchange with nature.
