Walk the Line articles and responses

Article on Richard Long.

My response to this article is that even though it is a simple idea it still is creative. Richard Long is documenting his tracks he has left behind and also purposely making a path to see in the picture where he has gone. It some ways he is telling a short story with these photographs because he is showing the viewer were he was in the moment of time.

Walking Drawings- By: Everton Wright

My response to this article and video on Everton's walking drawings is that he is creating an interactive instillation by letting people be apart of the art. It is interesting how he uses horses in the video to make the drawing, how he uses footprints to make his design really pop out of the sand. I think it is cool how the scale is so big and he lets a group of people walk on it to create art. Very original way of public art and letting people be apart of it.
