The Greening of Art

The Greening of Art describes the shifts in position between art and nature which took place during the past fifty years, to set out re-establishing a new relationship between art and the landscape-environment, and attempt in various ways to re-connect art with nature. From the 1960s onward, when artists went outdoors to explore the environment as extended space of the self, via land reclamation projects and collaborations with landscape architects in redesigning whole parks to the present day, with its recent development of urban gardening projects.
