Nearby Richard Long: Heaven and Earth

 
 
Richard Long: Heaven and EarthBritish landscape artist Richard Long, shortlisted for the Turner Prize four times, finally winning it in 1989, is the subject of a solo exhibition at Tate Britain. It was after winning the Turner Prize with 'White Water Line' that the Tate commissioned Long to create three site specific pieces for its Duveen Gallery. Walking in the landscape, creating sculptures out of nature is a fixation for the artist who first started this kind of work in 1967 when he walked through a grass field, creating a straight line through the downtrodden greenery. Since then his work has taken him from the Alps to the Andes. This is a chance to see the landscape sculptures he's created along the way.
