Andy Goldsworthy created the leaf stalk room at yorkshire sculpture park. Can you help me to know a bit more?
Basically i’m writing the context of his work on the leaf stalk room. I wanted to know about background information e.g major historical or social events that went on at the location or time that the artwork was made. I know that he made it when yorkshire sculpture park was marking it’s 30th anniversary. What was happening in the art world when he created it? which other artists may have been an influence or companion? Do you know about the situation in which the artwork was being created? like how long it took etc.. Thanks if you can help me!!!
