Heizer Breaks New Ground Indoors and Out


« Heizer began thinking huge in the '60s. A onetime student at the San Francisco Art Institute, he was frustrated after moving East by the narrow confines of New York City's art world and by the dismaying prospect of producing parlor pieces to earn his living. In 1967 he headed for Nevada to work in a medium in short supply in Manhattan: the earth. » (Harriet Shapiro)
Shapiro H., « It May Be Dirty Work, but Sculptor Michael Heizer Breaks New Ground Indoors and Out », People, Vol. 24, No 8, Oct. 18 1985.
