At the end of the 1960s, \u201cartists come out of the art studio\u201d and venture into cities, gardens, urban and natural landscapes, \u201cto give more room to the sculptural gesture\u201d. Art historian Colette Garraud takes us all over Europe to discover the multitude of outdoor installations that were born from this major artistic movement. Articulating her book around \u201cThe sculpture and the space\u201d, \u201cPlaces for the body\u201d and \u201cThe tree: an object of nature\u201d, the author itemizes, through numerous photographs, the diversity of contemporary artists\u2019 approaches and creations. Gormley, Penone, Goldsworthy, Marta Pan, Dan Graham and others break the lines and change our perception of how we relate to space, time, nature, and our selves. Sculpture parks, gardens and landscapes are not only welcoming grounds, they are at the very heart of the creative process, where sculptures are born, live and sometimes die. Colette Garraud takes us on a European tour of more than twenty sites, and unveils their history and their uniqueness.<\/p>\n
