Abstract
This paper aims to draw attention to an art movement land art, which emerged in the second half of the sixties of the 20th century in American cultural area. The goal of this paper is to establish the question to what degree land art emphasized the environmental aspect and to what degree landscape only served the purpose of background or space where to manipulate with a great amount of mass.
That is why the focus is mainly on the comparison of American and European land art and the reasons for their different approach towards landscape.
