Initiated by Fernández's long-term engagement with challenging socially constructed ideas about place and landscape and her immersive research on Smithson's art and ideas, Teresita Fernández / Robert Smithson explores convergences and divergences in the artists' thinking and making around sites, seeing, deep time, the cosmos, the subterranean, material intelligence, geological agency, and cartographic fictions.
Produced in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name at SITE SANTA FE, this volume is structured as a subjective, intergenerational conversation between two artists whose conceptual, research-based practices take form through experimental sculptural approaches to matter and material. The book's structure tracks closely with the organization of the show, as rooms centered on resonant themes in the artists' work become chapters in the publication for the reader to navigate at a different pace. In addition to a text by Fernández, written initially as part of a performance at SITE, and selected writing from and excerpted interviews with Smithson, the book includes new essays by Lisa Le Feuvre, the co-curator of the exhibition and Executive Director of Holt/Smithson Foundation; Carla Acevedo-Yates; and Lucy R. Lippard, along with an excerpt of a republished text by Nadiah Rivera Fellah and a conversation between Fernández and fellow artist Cecilia Vicuña.
