One of Andy Goldsworthy's influences:
Emmen, Holland
Summer 1971
green water, white and yellow sand flats
diameter 140'
canal apx 12' wide
depth quarry late 10-15'
He works in a lot of different mediums. His drawings/collages are probably my favorite:
Untitled (Tear)
1961-63
gouache, photograph, crayon
24 x 26 1/2"
Map Fragment
1967
6"x6"
He also does Sculpture, Film, Photography, and has a collection of essays. What's really interesting about his sculpture is how geometric it is, while his other work is very nature-based. I love finding pre-cursors to my favorite artists.
