"In contemporary art, consensus is rarer than a decent drawing by Tracey Emin. In the case of Richard Long, however, the critics seem mostly to be agreed: hard to describe their usual response to his work as anything other than a swoon. They stare at his maps, his photographs and his stone circles, and a sense of awe creeps over them. They imagine him - bandana around his head, dried foodstuffs in his rucksack - striding out alone into the wilderness, and they tremble at the sheer manliness of the enterprise."
Guardian, Berkshire Review, Richard Long
