Andy Goldsworthy
UK
British artist
Andy Goldsworthy
works in the fields and forests
near his home
in Scotland
using natural elements
as his media.
His pieces have a tendency
to collapse, decay
and melt,
but, as he tells
Fresh Air's Terry Gross,
"It's not about art.
It's just about life
and the need to understand
that a lot of things in life
do not last."
The list of elements
Goldsworthy
has worked
with
includes ice, snow, mud,
wind and the rising
tide.
In one piece,
he used twigs to fashion
a giant spider web
hanging from a tree.
In another,
he decorated a stone wall
with
sheets of ice.
He has also lain in the rain
to create "rain
shadows"
in the shape of his body
on city streets.

his materials included glass,

The result was a

of abstract sculptures
that illuminated
indoor and outdoor spaces
in cities around the globe,
instantly
recognizable
for their vibrant colors
and sinuous lines.

artist
whose super-realist
sculptures

earned him
vast popular
acclaim,

Mr. Hanson
rose to international fame
in the early 70's
during the rise
of Photo
Realist painting.
Using casts of live models,
he produced life-size
figures
of Everymen and women,
which he dressed in real
clothes
and sometimes supplemented
with real chairs, tables
and
other props.

Marjorie Jewel "Marlow" Moss UK
1889-1958
one of Britain’s
most important
Constructivist artists
(...)
Prior to
the First
World War,
Moss produced
highly abstract
painted compositions
similar to the
work
of Mondrian, with whom
she is
often associated
and who she was
close to
for much of her life.
Later,
her
practice developed
toward the production
of all-white
reliefs
and sculptural works.
Moss lived and
worked
between Paris and
Cornwall
for much of her life,
changing her name
and permanently adopting
a masculine
appearance
in 1919.
Moss finally
settled
in Lamorna Cove in 1939.
