Land Art, Metaphors and Mapping - Making a Locality and Historical Site an Event

• This paper is about the reception of a piece of Land Art, 11 minutes line, of the US-American artist Maya Lin, set up in 2000 at Wanås manor in the South of Sweden. A case study will show how the deepened experience of nature the earthwork provides for its visitors, as well as its indications of some kind of historical consistency can be modelled. Through ‘mapping’, the corporeality and concepts that evolve under specific circumstances are marked. Wolfgang Iser’s concepts such as ‘implied reader’ and ‘negativity’ make it possible to explain and to map a visitor’s experience of the artwork as an ‘intellectual landscape’.
