ROBERT SMITHSON: MAPPING DISLOCATIONS October 13 - November 24, 2001 James Cohan Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of work by Robert Smithson titled Mapping Dislocations.
The show will feature a selection of maps, drawings and photographs that highlight Smithson's exploration of mapping and its integral relationship to his works defined as "nonsites" and "displacements". Robert Smithson is most well known for his monumental earthwork Spiral Jetty, 1970, located in the Great Salt Lake, in Utah. While he is most recognized for his earthworks, Smithson also created a large body of work that explored a variety of themes dealing with the post-industrial landscape, entropy, and paradox.
