Summary: Goldsworthy, Gold worthy.
Comment: I purchased this book when I was at the Grounds for Sculpture in New Jersey. Goldsworthy has always been one of my "heros" but I had know idea he had books! I had seen his work in my old sculpture text and a documentary. This book was instantly part of my "treasured art text" library. The photography is superb. A wonderful match to Goldsworthys work. The text is an eloquent and sometimes contemplative commentary by the artist. I have no idea why it never occurred to me that the artist would document his work in book form! Little slow on the uptake for this reader. I immediately looked online line and purchased several more Goldsworthy books for my library. Surprisingly enough, I got a few good deals on used books. Who would part with them. A good deal on the price or not, if you love Goldsworthy, enviromental art or just want to see some vivid breathtaking photography, this is one of the best.

Summary: Calming and Inspiring Brilliance
Comment: Mr. Goldsworthy's art is most remarkable for its ephemeral qualities, and the immense patience required to make beautiful works of art that may last for only minutes. Hours and often days are spent creating fragile works that may be instantly destroyed. Artist's notes include mention of errant dogs and tractors erasing nearly completed works.
For myself, these pages offer lessons not only in creativity, but also in patience and the importance of enjoying the present. Only an artist who enjoys the creative process above the end-product could attempt the fragile creations presented herein. Mr. Goldsworthy's creations offer a metaphor on how we might choose to live our own lives: enjoying every moment for its own merit, not merely working toward a future that itself will not last forever.
Speaking as a layperson, this is the most influential art collection that I have seen in many years. I have never shown it to anyone without an overwhelmingly interested and positive response.
