An exhibition revealing the complex interrelationship between art, landscape, and architecture in a rural context, focusing on design proposals for the development of Art Farm. Exploring alternatives to the predominant land uses found in the rural areas of the Great Plains, it asks the question, "Can art form the basis of a post-agricultural landscape?"
