Martin, Rupert
Spaces, places and landmarks
Environmental art, p53

The best works recognise that the place is more important than the object and that any intervention is at best semi-permanent; the sculpture park sustains the notion of the 18 th cent. of art being a tasteful adjunct to nature; the urge to possess the land caused people to mark with it earth works obelisks, etc. yet the most enduring works are those that live in the imagination and belong to the whole culture like the Songlines of the Aboriginals; from 50's art and landscape to today.
