Thinking with Robert Smithson
Curator Talk with Lisa Le Feuvre ⁠
Thursday May 30 at 5:30pm⁠
SITE SANTA FE Marlene Nathan Meyerson Auditorium. ⁠

This July, SITE SANTA FE, in collaboration with artist Teresita Fernández and Holt/Smithson Foundation, presents the exhibition Teresita Fernández / Robert Smithson.

Artist-led and conceptually driven, Teresita Fernández / Robert Smithson is a subjective, intergenerational conversation between two practices, pulling the past into the present. The exhibition critically considers entanglements between place, site, seeing, and deep time through the artists’ mutual engagement with material intelligence, geological agency, and cartographic fictions. Co-curated by Fernández and Lisa Le Feuvre, the exhibition opens July 5, 2024, and will remain on view through October 28, 2024. ⁠
