On the occasion of the exhibition Nancy Holt: Light and Shadow Poetics at the MAK Center for Art and Architecture at the Schindler House, we are pleased to present a special screening event.

Museum Ostwall at the Dortmunder U presents the exhibition Waste. An exhibition about the global routes of rubbish, which features works by Nancy Holt relating to her unfinished project Sky Mound (1984-). Waste is on view through July 26, 2026.

We are very pleased to share details of the 2026 Holt/Smithson Foundation Annual Lecture. Our guest speaker is artist Matt Mullican, and our partner for the fifth event in the series is the Smithsonian Institution’s Archives of American Art.

Three films by Nancy Holt and Robert Smithson are currently on view at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in collection gallery 411 of the David Geffen Wing. This presentation focuses on Spiral Jetty (1970), Swamp (1971), and Sun Tunnels (1978). Newly restored scans of the first two works are presented as part of a collaboration between Holt/Smithson Foundation and MoMA to preserve their moving-image work.

Throughout February 2026, we are publishing the ninth chapter of our Tuesday Text Series as part of our ongoing Scholarly Text Program, which invites thinkers to focus on a single artwork by Holt and/or Smithson. Developed as a tool for researchers at all stages, the Scholarly Text Program aims to publish two essays on each work, presenting differing opinions and approaches and drawing connections to topics that range from geology and ecology to poetry, architecture, public art, sculpture, drawing, film, philosophy, site, and

What does it mean to notice how we see?

This exhibition to brings Holt’s work into a responsive dialogue with the Schindler House, inviting visitors to experience art and architecture as partners in seeing.
