Photography
Richard Long is a British artist working primarily with photography and land intervention. Since the 1960s, he has created walks across remote landscapes, documenting them through photographs, maps, and textual records that collapse the distance between action and representation. His practice fundamentally questions the relationship between the body, the earth, and the photographic image as evidence. Long's work has been influential in establishing photography as a means of conceptual inquiry rather than mere documentation.
