What is Land Art?

A relationship of participation and exchange, moving out of the environments of museums, galleries and enclosed spaces, to seek contact with the daily life of all audiences that is attainable and possible even if only for a limited duration and never to be repeated, but able to remain eternal in the human soul. That is what it is.
