My love of outdoor art and sculpture started when I saw my first piece of work by Andy Goldsworthy. The contrast between the seemingly solid and the transient nature of the works which can only be seen sometimes through a photograph seems to me to be a very appropriate metaphor.
This website gives details of all of his work and philosophy. And this one links to an couple of exhibitions that he has done at The Yorkshire Sculpture Park near Wakefield.
I have several of his books and spend happy hours just looking at the pictures and filling up my eyes. I will get the rest of the books when we come back from our trip.
