Land Art: Creating Artworks in and with the Landscape (Paperback)

“His affinity with nature, its patterns, textures, colors, and seasons, speak volumes in the work he creates . . . a must-have page turner, filled with timeless, beautiful inspirations that will resonate with anyone interested in the true art of nature and what it is to be human. Go buy it!” - James Craig Page, director, European Stone Stacking Championships

“Brunt responds directly to his given location . . . he is one of the most accomplished environmental assemblage artists living today.” - Mark Antony Haden Ford, land artist, Weaver from Two Circles Design

“James has been inspiring students at the International School of Düsseldorf for many years. We use his work in our second grade ‘Art is in Nature’ unit to explore the ways nature inspires artists to create, and also to spark ideas when students are creating artworks of their own.” - Simon Waterworth, ES outdoor learning teacher; coordinator, Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award

nbsp;“An arresting manual on making art from natural materials . . . suited for sparking the imagination . . . the exhilarating images of Brunt’s pieces are the real treat, featuring simple yet elegant designs of pebbles arrayed in concentric circles next to a creek and a cluster of trees surrounded by curving lines of sticks that make it look as if the dirt were rippling outward. Readers will be inspired to follow their muse to the great outdoors.” - Publishers Weekly

“James doesn’t allow his work to become complicated and he doesn’t burden himself with tools and equipment and fancy techniques . . . He instills a sense of wonder as if every leaf and twig has magical powers.” - Sean Corcoran, environmental artist; artistic director, The Art Hand, Waterford, Ireland
