This project deals with art transformations of the landscape.

Art is here understood in a broad sense, involving fields from Architecture, Archaeology, Landscape Architecture, Performance and Installation Art. Our objective is to involve a wide series of partners into the changing of different landscapes through the action of artists (in the broad sense mentioned).

The spaces of intervention vary through the European space, in different scenarios through different countries. The artworks range from LandArt interventions, to sculptures, installations and Performative art. Through this acts we want to show the “bringing forth” that is connected to the action of being, introducing new spaces that can be used also into the economic development and general welfare of the community.

The artworks will be carried in a logic of mobility, promotion and integration of young and experienced artists across the European space. The existing heritage will be a special concern in our project. The artworks intend to build a network of meanings between past and present, natural and human. Through this we hope to raise the potential of the existing cultural and environmental heritage, promoting it's value.

There will be a close emphasis on a strategy of dissemination of the action. Through this we expect to build a wider sustainable European cultural network related to art landscape transformation. I n the future we also expect that it can be developed not only through public bodies but by the private sector on other landscape projects, serving as a model.

Through the project conception we got a global response which shows the potential of this area in the all world, being possible to bridge to a wider concept. It is well known the impact that artworks can have in the development of cities (Bilbao Guggenheim, the Cow Parade, Christo’s installations, etc). We want to use art for the developments of the landscape focusing in the European countryside, mainly in areas with known disadvantages.
