Claire : Thank you for this interview. I first saw a small Goldsworthy exhibition about 5 years ago at the University of Michigan and was completely enthralled. I don't pretend to speak with artistic knowledge. I had an existing appreciation for the environment and for abstract art. Goldsworthy's work, for me, melds the two. I have looked at the world in a different way ever since. Most of us can not be a Goldsworthy, but just think how much more interesting, and thoughtful, our suburban yards could be if we tried to put into practice just a hint of what he is showing us. Right now I'm in the far north of the midwest, buried in snow. If you've ever seen the photographs of his snow and ice scuptures you realize that experimenting with something like that, even on a very small scale, would serve to keep cabin-fever at bay for a bit. Thanks again for the interview. You might want to include the names of other artists working in the area (Smithson I already knew) and some of the key words that can help people find this kind of work on the Internet and at the library. Is it still called 'landscape art/architecture' or is there a newer term? For me the photographs of his work are a great substitute for meditation too. Thanks.
