<div>Land art is a reaction to limit art to enclosed spaces such as galleries, museums, lounges or walls. The art form started to begin in 1960s in America. The main aim of land art is to bring in a new meaning and save the demolished nature. In addition, it is a reaction to metropolitan lifestyle and urbanization. It implies the importance of nature against to concretization. Land art artists see nature itself as a work of art and try to contribute to it. This art form creates by using natural materials such as rocks, stones, soil, organic materials such as leaves, flowers or water. In addition, earth moving elements are included.<br />
<br />
The artists of land art think that art cannot be limited, it is all about nature and related to the Earth itself. They also protest contemporary artists and their materialist arts. Land art inspired from modern art such as ''cubism, minimalism'' or ''De Stijl''. It also related with ''Minimalism'' and ''Conceptualism''. It has a lot of contributions to ''contemporary architecture'' and create examples to ''utopic architecture''.<br />
<br />
The pioneer of the land art, ''Robert Smithson (1938-1973)'' published an essay called '''The Sedimentation of the Mind: Earth Projects''' and thus, the art form showed itself. In April 1970, he built his one of the most important work, ''Spiral Jetty'' on the freezing coasts of the northernmost of Salt Lake, Utah. <br />
<br />
''Michael Heizer, (1944-)'', another important artist of land art, aimed to create geometric abstractions. For this aim, he stated to build a kind of earthworks city consisting of massive earth and concrete forms in 1970s.<br />
<br />
The other pioneers of land art have gone to the distinction of form, space, material and philosophy in their works but the common aim of all is to avoid limitation in art. ''Joseph Beuys, Andy Goldsworthy, Walter de Maria, Dennis Oppenheim, Mel Chin'' and ''Carl Andre'' tried to create artworks for this purpose.</div>Selinozaltin93http://www.openwikitopia.org/index.php?title=Visionary_Architecture&diff=474Visionary Architecture2016-11-12T11:32:22Z<p>Selinozaltin93: Created page with "Visionary Architecture is term used for describe which exist only on paper.

<div>Visionary Architecture is term used for describe which exist only on paper. The works of visionary architecture have idealistic and utopist aspects. Visionary architecture describes mental pictures created by imagination. It is related with imaginary world and also related with desire to reach optimum lives. Imaginary, conceptual and radical designs on paper use as tools that goals of ideal world. These designs provide understanding of the abnormal impression of the universes that are difficult to visit, aside from through the visual performance of the composed and creative environment. In addition to that, these design can be evaluating in two meanings. One of them is imaginary meaning which represents unrealistic and impossible to achieve. Other one is creating unseen reality. Visionary architecture provides an innovative way to create ideal world and gives ideas for future world. <br />
<br />
There are criticisms of visionary architecture. One of them is the belief that these buildings cannot be constructed in the real world and the other is the belief that some visionary designs are difficult to be occupied by the human. Visionary architecture works disassociate with the physical nature of the real world. On the other hand, these drawings characterized true importance of architecture and design that means the essentialness of the works of visionary design.<br />
<br />
Since Renaissance, the varying representations of structures advanced and became quickly through the presentation of perspective. Artists and architects such as ''Giovanni Battista Piranesi'', Italian artist in 18thcentury, ''Etienne-Louis Boullee'', French neoclassical architect in 18th century, ''Antonio Sant'Elia'', Italian architect and important architect of the Futurist movement in 19th century, ''Lebbeus Woods, Alexander Brodsky ''and'' Ilya Utkin'' in 20th century created significant works of visionary architecture.</div>Selinozaltin93
