For the British environmental sculptor and artist Andy Goldsworthy, wood evokes ideas of growth, constant change, and metamorphosis. In Wood, he works with leaves, bark, branches, ice, boulders, and sand. Most of this work is destined to disappear and Goldsworthy's photographs attempt to capture the exact moment when the works come alive for him. |

Here is what people are saying about the Wood
"Woodrific!" | 2008-11-02 |
| - Reviewed By Kathleen McCUE from Grenfell, NSW AUST |
| This book just makes you want to go out into nature and create a masterpiece. As a gardener and sculptor I find the photos of his work inspiring and will definitely be attempting to create my own version of environmental art. |

| I wish all of the pictures took up the entire page but many are small. The art itself is flawless. |

"Wood Highly Recommend" | 2001-11-13 |
| - Reviewed By dbloom20 from Olympia, WA USA |
| It's a big and invigorating book. If you like earth art this book (and there are others) offers some of the best of Goldsworthy. The concepts and execution are as inventive as they are cerebral. While I've never seen his work in person the photos and narrative of this book really feel like they capture the detail. In other ways the book itself is as well presented and printed as any book of art I've seen. If you can't afford it (it was expensive for me) try and get your local library to invest. It would be a great contribution to your local enclave. |

"A fresh look at nature" | 2000-10-22 |
| - Reviewed By Shadowfire from College Park, MD |
| Goldsworthy's art isn't what he makes. It's what he does to things that are already there to make them fresh and beautiful to the jaded eye of an average human. Simple things work best in his art, evoke more raw emotion and longing: he lines tree branches with dandelions and red maple leaves; he hangs large snowballs in trees; ribbons of leaves trail off into the water and spiral icicles circle tree trunks. It's all so simple and captivating, it's really quite astounding. Goldsworthy's art is fleeting. The only reminders of his non-permanent works are photographs. In Wood, Goldsworthy goes beyond the confines of this material and shows us his mastery with the entire spectrum of natural media - snow, ice, rock, leaf, etc. The book is subdivided into sections dealing with each specific medium, the last being Tree - each work is centered around a low-lying branch of a large oak. Nevertheless, I must say that this collection of Goldsworthy's art is slightly inferior to his Collaborations with Nature, which is a better first choice if you are unfamiliar with his principles. |

| This book is so cool! I studied about Andy Goldsworthy for Art, and he is my fav artist. What he does is different and is not boring. When you look at his art it makes you think. They look so beautiful and peacful. |
