About the artist

Nancy Holt (1938–2014) was central to the earth, land and conceptual art movements as well as a pioneer of site-specific installation and experimental moving image. She recalibrated the limits of art, expanding the places where art could be found and embraced the new media of her time. Across five decades, she asked questions about how we might understand our place in the world, consistently investigating the relationships between perception, systems, and place. Holt’s rich artistic output spans concrete poetry, audioworks, film and video, photography, slideworks, ephemeral gestures, drawings, room-sized installations, earthworks, artists’ books, and public sculpture commissions.
