Robert Smithson

Here are some photos and earthworks by Robert Smithson that relate to some of my own work.

This is from his series “Monuments of Passiac” taken in New Jersey in 1967.


These two are from “Hotel Palenque” taken in Mexico in 1969.




This earthwork is called “Glue Pour” and it was done in Vancouver in 1969.

Wow, this is really neat. I like how you can almost see the glue still moving. I really like the idea of movement within photos. The backgrounds have a great interaction with the glue as well. These are just awesome photos, thanks for posting them!
