Miwon Kwon's proposition Ends of the Earth (and Back) is a work-in-progress report on the exhibition "Ends of the Earth: Land Art to 1977." Co-organized with MoCA curator Philipp Kaiser, the exhibition seeks to capture the simultaneous impulse emergent in the 1960s to use the earth as an artistic medium and to locate works in remote sites far from familiar art contexts. Her special guest on Saturday, April 24 is Dr. Alexander Nagel. Dr. Nagel will compare the Jerusalem chapel in the church of Santa Croce in Rome and other medieval assemblages of geological and cultural relics to Robert Smithson's "Non-Sites" and related works.
