ABOUT US
It is our pleasure to introduce to you “POUSTINIA LAND ART”, an alternative outdoor gallery for both ephemeral and permanent art; a place where the beauty of human inspiration can be contemplated within the beauty of nature. It is a site for observing and appreciating art and for other recreational and educational activities.
​
Poustinia sprouted from a cattle ranch formerly called Eldorado. During the development of the ranch, trees were felled and hills were flattened in-order to give way to pastureland. What was once a lush rainforest was turned into a sterile savannah in the early seventies and lasted until the late eighties when the cattle project was abandoned and the sterile savannah has reverted into its former glory as a lush rainforest.
Bruce Scott, The New York Times, June 2004.
“BEYOND THE GATES LIES A SCULPTURE PARK THAT EVOKES THE SPIRIT OF
“FITZCARRALDO,” WERNER HERZOG’S FILM ABOUT A MAN’S QUEST TO BRING OPERA
TO THE RAIN FOREST.”
ANDREW STEINHAUER, BELIZEAN ART CRITIC
"POUSTINIA IS ART WITH AN INDIANA JONES WILDERNESS SPIN."
​
"AT POUSTINIA THE ART OBJECTS ARE DWARFED BY THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH THEY ARE SITUATED."
