Alan Sonfist: American Earth Landscape
By Norman L KleeblattNOV 2021 | ArtSeen
When you google “land art” one of the top options features two photographic examples: Robert Smithson’s monumental Spiral Jetty (1970), perhaps the paradigm for the genre, and Alan Sonfist’s Time Landscape (1978). Smithson’s earthwork is a massive and muscular transformation of terrain set in the vast open area of Utah’s Great Salt Lake. Its image is quickly identifiable, iconic. Time Landscape is modest, non-iconic, and set in the heart of an urban metropolis.
Ricardo Wilson’s An Apparent Horizon and Other Stories
By Andrew GoriDEC 21-JAN 22 | Books
