The exhibition’s conceptual curation allows participants to click on a specific theme to learn more about topics and events contemporaneous to the building of the Jetty, all Utah and often University of Utah-specific. Time Trip: Utah, Spiral Jetty, and Robert Smithson in the 1970s is arranged thematically to take participants on a “trip” through the decade in which the seminal work was made. Now, a new digital exhibition and online resource hosted by Salt Lake City’s Utah Museum of Fine Arts showcases historical information collected not from the Great Salt Lake, but from the human landscape surrounding Smithson’s earthwork and his subsequent visits to the University of Utah during a brief visiting professorship. Over the course of several days, Smithson, with the help of local contractors, carried more than 6,000 tons of stones to form a 1,500-foot-long configuration, the now-iconic Spiral Jetty. SALT LAKE CITY, UT-In the spring of 1970, Robert Smithson and his wife and fellow artist Nancy Holt solidified a special use lease with the Utah Division of State Lands for ten acres at the Great Salt Lake, setting in motion the creation of one of the 20th century’s most well-known artworks.
