Casting a Glance: Dancing with Smithson

We are delighted to share details of "Casting a Glance: Dancing with Smithson," an exhibition launching at Marian Goodman Gallery Los Angeles on November 8, 2025, on show until January 24, 2026. In 1968 Robert Smithson declared: “A great artist can make art by simply casting a glance.” This exhibition takes him at his word ing invites eighteen artists to join Smithson on the floor as partners who resist, improvise, and extend the rhythm of his thinking.
