Long heeft ze tijdens zijn eindeloze wandelingen overal ter wereld achtergelaten: cirkels van steen en hout in Frankrijk en Alaska of in de mist in Schotland; een kronkelende lijn in een stenige vlakte in de Sahara en een lijn van water uitgegoten op een brugje in de Italiaanse Alpen.

 Art in America: Richard Long at Griffin Contemporary - Brief Article
For over 30 years, Richard Long has walked in the wilderness, his footsteps and the weight of his body have made their brief mark, then he has left the terrain to revert to its previous, unsigned state.
For this elegant show, Long deviated from his usual path and created for the first time a series of portable, discrete objects that don't specifically refer to the time and place of their conception, and don't require, like his assemblages of stones, notations by the artist for proper installation or display.
They work on the imagination in much the same way as Long's more familiar efforts--by appearing at first simple and obvious, their significance mounting as the fundamental power of the mark of the hand sinks in.
