Lucien den Aren, Land Art Project (1985 Netherlands)

This photo was taken at a small air strip in the Netherlands. After looking through the many photos of earth art I've found that it's common for the authors to incorporate a swirl into their work. It would be interesting to find out if this has any significance or if it is just used for eye appeal. If anyone finds anything please post!

Dadang Christanto, 1001 Earth Humans (2005)

This piece of art was used at a conference focusing on monuments and public memory. To a certain point I believe that a lot of art was created for rememberance of an event or person. Not only in American society, but in societies around the world, public monuments to remember events and people are very important. As for this particular piece of work, I find it strange that most of the monuments in the water all look the same. I'm not sure if the author was trying to signify something or if it was just coincidence.
