Summary
[edit]DescriptionMichael Heizer, Double Negative, 1969 (7841453560).jpg |
Mormon Mesa, Nevada Double Negative is Michael Heizer's first prominent earthwork. Seen above from near the edge of the work, and below from space via satellite, Double Negative consists of two trenches cut into the eastern edge of the Mormon Mesa, northwest of Overton, Nevada in 1969-70. The trenches line up across a large gap formed by the natural shape of the mesa edge. Including this open area across the gap, the trenches together measure 1,500 feet long, 50 feet deep, and 30 feet wide (457 meters long, 15.2 meters deep, 9.1 meters wide). 240,000 tons (218,000 tonnes) of rock, mostly rhyolite and sandstone, was displaced in the construction of the trenches. <a href="http://doublenegative.tarasen.net/double_negative.html" rel="noreferrer nofollow">doublenegative.tarasen.net/double_negative.html</a> |
