About This Point of Interest
The Smithson Sculpture, located east of the Liquid Crystals Materials Science Building, was created by the late Robert Smithson, a conceptual artist, who was invited to campus in the late 1960s as a visiting artist and lecturer in the School of Art. He was on campus for a week giving lectures to the sculpture students. He noticed the old wood shed at the corner of Summit Street and Rhodes Road and decided to cover the north side of it with dirt until the main support beam cracked, and then nature would take its course. Smithson named the piece “Partially Buried Woodshed.”
