Road Trip: Utah 

 In Utah’s Great Basin Desert, artist Nancy Holt (1938–2014) realized her site-specific earthwork, Sun Tunnels. Nancy Holt selected a strikingly remote location to heighten visitors’ senses. 

The 1978 work print of the Sun Tunnels documentary by Nancy Holt is currently on view in our exhibition, Off the Beaten Track: A Road Trip through the Archives of American Art, on view through June 3 in our Lawrence A. Fleischman Gallery in Washington, D.C.

NANCY HOLT - SUN TUNNELS 1973-76

"In a remote valley of Utah’s Great Basin Desert, Holt’s massive ​Sun Tunnels ​looms along the horizon, visible from over a mile away. The four concrete structures are arranged in a cross formation, positioned precisely to frame the sun as it rises and sets during the summer and winter solstices. Small holes are configured in the concrete to cast projections of constellations along the tunnels’ interior; Draco, Perseus, Columba, and Capricorn materialize out of sunlight, their patterns illuminated upon the viewer inside. With ​Sun Tunnels, ​Holt brings the cosmos down to the earth and into the realm of human experience."
