Robert Smithson - MOCA 2004
Published on the occasion of the first American retrospective of the artist's complex and highly influential body of work, this volume explores the transition between Smithson's early works, which draw from religious and science-fiction themes, through his Minimal sculptures based on crystal formations, to his renowned Earthworks.
Essays by top Smithson scholars are generously illustrated with archival images and specially commissioned photography of the artist's works. This volume also includes a catalogue of the contents of Smithson's personal library, as well as a previously unpublished interview with the artist conducted shortly before his untimely death in 1973.
Organized by Eugenie Tsai with Cornelia Butler for The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.
