This book explores the nature of Britain-based artists' engagement
with the transformations of their environment since the early days
of the Industrial Revolution. At a time of pressing ecological
concerns, the international group of contributors provide a series
of case studies that reconsider the nature-culture divide and aim
at identifying the contours of a national narrative that stretches
from enclosed lands to rising seas. By adopting a longer historical
view, this book hopes to enrich current debates concerning art's
engagement with recording and questioning the impact of human
activity on the environment. The book will be of interest to
scholars working in art history, contemporary art, environmental
humanities, and British studies.
