Alta Live: An Indigenous Response to Land Art with Jason Asenap

The Spiral Jetty in Utah’s Great Salt Lake, Land’s End’s labyrinth in San Francisco, and the staggering Mount Rushmore in South Dakota: land art installations of all sizes are nearly as ubiquitous as museums and galleries. But what are the implications of land art for Indigenous people, the original caretakers of the land upon which these pieces sit (or are, as in the case of Mount Rushmore, carved)? In “Hubris in Art Form,” his article in Alta Journal’s Issue 22, Comanche and Muscogee Creek writer Jason Asenap details land art from an Indigenous perspective. He joins Alta Live to dig deeper into this important topic, examine the concepts of property and public art, and answer your questions. Join us!
