In addition to a new introduction by Jack Flam, The Collected Writings includes previously unpublished essays by Smithson and gathers hard-to-find articles, interviews, and photographs. Together these provide a full picture of his wide-ranging views on art and culture.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49729110737169,"sku":"NGR9780520203853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50468587766033,"sku":"GOR004989998","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50659033448721,"sku":"CIN0520203852G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51002928365841,"sku":"NIN9780520203853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51182734016785,"sku":"CIN0520203852VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51796754628881,"sku":"GOR005510004","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0520203852.jpg?v=1751325885"},{"product_id":"artists-on-robert-smithson-book-robert-smithson-9780944521915","title":"Artists on Robert Smithson","description":"Artists from Matthew Buckingham to Diana Thater address the rich legacy of Robert Smithson’s films, sculptures and Spiral Jetty  This is the fifth volume in a series that builds upon Dia Art Foundation’s Artists on Artists lectures. The contributors to Artists on Robert Smithson engage with Smithson’s work in myriad ways: Matthew Buckingham’s essay highlights Smithson’s preoccupation with the ways that histories of the earth are constructed and contested; Abraham Cruzvillegas considers Smithson’s work with broken glass and architecture; Mark Dion’s didactic approach to the life and work of the artist recounts the conceptual and evolutionary conditions that led to his birth and development; Teresita Fernández confronts the limitations of dominant histories of place, art and the monumental; Trevor Paglen considers Smithson’s iconic spiral and his fascination with natural history; Rayyane Tabet weaves together a history of basalt that reveals themes of colonialism, surveillance and strife; and finally, engaging with the science fiction canon and its cinematic conventions, Diana Thater provides a close reading of Smithson’s Spiral Jetty film.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51009895137553,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51009899233553,"sku":"NIN9780944521915","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52141750747409,"sku":"NLS9780944521915","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53429190131985,"sku":"CIN0944521916G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0944521916.jpg?v=1750747640"},{"product_id":"teresita-fernandez-robert-smithson-book-robert-smithson-9798890181039","title":"Teresita Fernández \/ Robert Smithson","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInitiated by Fernández's long-term engagement with challenging socially constructed ideas about place and landscape and her immersive research on Smithson's art and ideas, \u003ci\u003eTeresita Fernández \/ Robert Smithson\u003c\/i\u003e explores convergences and divergences in the artists' thinking and making around sites, seeing, deep time, the cosmos, the subterranean, material intelligence, geological agency, and cartographic fictions.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProduced in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name at SITE SANTA FE, this volume is structured as a subjective, intergenerational conversation between two artists whose conceptual, research-based practices take form through experimental sculptural approaches to matter and material. The book's structure tracks closely with the organization of the show, as rooms centered on resonant themes in the artists' work become chapters in the publication for the reader to navigate at a different pace. In addition to a text by Fernández, written initially as part of a performance at SITE, and selected writing from and excerpted interviews with Smithson, the book includes new essays by Lisa Le Feuvre, the co-curator of the exhibition and Executive Director of Holt\/Smithson Foundation; Carla Acevedo-Yates; and Lucy R.
