In keeping with the themes from the last week or so – I received this in the mail this morning and thought it would be interesting to few people as well…
Walter De Maria, The New York Earth Room and The Broken Kilometer will close for the summer on June 13 – so hurry to see these if you haven’t already – or don’t they re-open in September (around the 15th). You see, even dirt needs to take the summer off sometimes. more info is at the Dia website.

The Broken Kilometer, 1979

That dirt does need a vacation! What’s you job? I rake, sprinkle and clean out the mushrooms everyday from the Earth Room.
Also this was a important nice for all the people that have rolled in that room over the years. Oh no, not this summer.
All that and it was Broken K. It shrunk.
