Art at the rockface. The fascination of stone Exhibition at Norwich Castle Museu
Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Nothing illuminates the brevity of human life for us more clearly than our understanding of the planet on which we live. Artists over the millennia have responded to the geological environment surrounding them and have preserved a record of our relationship with the earth as a source of inspiration. This book examines the principal ways by which artists have explored the geology of landscapes and the forms within individual stones in their quest for truth. In the writings of heonardo da Vinci we learn that his exploration of the environment parallels his study of the human body: the study of geology has been as long-lived for man as his fascination with his own body, in life and death.
