The Smithsonian Institution’s Archives for American Art has acquired a vast archive of writings and publications related to the pioneering Land Art artist Nancy Holt. The first installment of the bequest, which will be held in joint ownership with the Holt-Smithson Foundation, includes more than 50,000 files spanning over four decades that follow the development of her art and personal life, including her work securing the legacy of her husband and fellow land artist Robert Smithson, as well as documentation of several unrealised works that the foundation hopes to bring to fruition in the future.
