Book Description
This book by and about the sculptor and pioneer land artist Richard Long explores his work from the 1990s to the present day. Long's ability to make works of physical and intellectual beauty in both outdoor and indoor spaces is unrivaled, and the journey covered here takes the reader around the world: to the Sahara Desert and down the Rio Grande, from coast to coast in Ireland and Spain, to Tierra del Fuego and Mongolia, and to the forests of Honshu in Japan. Some of the artist's sculptures were made during his walks through the world's landscapes, while others bring the materials of naturestones, boulders, driftwood, clay, and mudinto museums, galleries, houses, and gardens. These works feed the senses, whereas the texts and photographs recording the artist's walks feed the imagination. Majestic museum pieces made from tons of rock are juxtaposed with dramatic mud works and photographs recording ephemeral sculptures often made in the remote wilderness. Most of the photographs were taken by the artist himself, and the book also includes his notes and writings. If walking has become Long's trademark, the path is perhaps the central image or archetype in his work. The idea of the path or way has meaning in all culturesfrom the most material to the most spiritual. It is both real and symbolic, whether it is a life, a road, or the Taoist "Great Way." With his walks, Richard Long weaves a line through many traditions, creating an art that is both timeless and universal. 248 illustrations in color and duotone.

Book Description
Included within this publication are forty-five 'mudworks' by Richard Long, produced especially for the book and accompanied by text from the artist himself. Long, an English sculptor, photographer and painter is closely associated with an art form that emerged in the 1970s, called Land Art. He earned his international reputation in that same decade with sculptures that he made as the result of epic walks, sometimes lasting days on end, that he went on to remote parts of the world, including desert regions of Africa as well as Australia, Canada, Japan, Switzerland and Norway. Since 1981 he has also engaged in painting by using liquid-like mud and applying it by hand, establishing a dialogue between the primal gesture of the hand-print and the formal elegance of its display. He has stressed that the meaning of his work rests in the visibility of his actions rather than in the representation of a particular landscape. In 2009 the Tate Britain, London (UK) dedicated a large retrospective exhibition to this exceptional artist.

Book Description
Widely considered as one of the most influential British artists of his generation, Long?s practice stems from his deep love of nature and the experience of making solitary walks.
