Groundswell (2023)

Exhibition

As for America, this 2023 exhibition at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, Texas, USA, gives an impressive overview of no fewer than 12 women artists who created land art. The exhibition and catalog offer a nice source of information for those who want to broaden their view of land art. In that case, be sure to watch the videos of the accompanying symposium, in which experts speak about the resistance of Native Americans, feminism and ecology, among other topics. The panel discussion with five of the artists is particularly worthwhile.

Groundswell features 12 artists recognized for their sustained engagement with Land art: Lita Albuquerque (American, born 1946); Alice Aycock (American, born 1946); Beverly Buchanan (American, 1940–2015); Agnes Denes (American, born Hungary, 1931); Maren Hassinger (American, born 1947); Nancy Holt (American, 1938–2014); Patricia Johanson (American, born 1940); Ana Mendieta (American, born in Cuba, 1948–1985); Mary Miss (American, born 1944); Jody Pinto (American, born 1942); Michelle Stuart (American, born 1933); and Meg Webster (American, born 1944).
