Jim Denevan (1961) is an American artist who creates temporary land art. He works with natural materials to create massive scale drawings in sand, ice, and soil. His sculptures are not placed in the landscape, rather, the landscape is the means of their creation. Often aerial photography or video is needed to comprehend the final work.
March 2010, Denevan was commissioned by The Anthropologist to create a large scale drawing on Lake Baikal. The drawing is the world's largest single artwork. A documentary of the journey and artwork called “Art Hard” was released in 2011. The short version of the film premiered at the Hamptons International Film Festival.
Jim Denevan is also the founder and organizer of a worldwide moveable feat called Outstanding in the Field, an ambitious attempt to reconnect diners to the land and the origins of their food, and to honor the local farmers and food artisans who cultivate it. Long tables (50+ seats) are set outside at farms, ranches, and gardens, a truly magical experience.
