Review # 2 was written on 2009-06-09 00:00:00 William Rezac Robert Smithson's earthwork sculpture The Spiral Jetty was done in 1970. Not too long after that it was submerged as the Great Salt Lake rose throughout the 80s. Now with its reappearance, this book is especially timely, historical and memorable. Anyone interested in Smithson, the artist, filmaker, philosopher and writer will want to read this book. Beautiful photographs and detailed drawings of his plans for Spiral Jetty. For me one of the most interesting chapters is the one written about what was involved in the actual construction of the Jetty and bringing Smithson's concept to realization. This year I also took a trip out to the West Desert to see Nancy Holt's (Smithson's wife)Sun Tunnels. We are privileged to have these two iconic sculptures in Utah.
