Nancy Holt

Nancy Holt (1938–2014) was a member of the Earth, Land, and Conceptual Art movements. A pioneer of site-specific installation and the moving image, Holt recalibrated the limits of art. She expanded the places where art could be found and embraced the new media of her time. Across five decades she asked questions about how we might understand our place in the world, investigating perception, systems, and place. Holt’s work is held in major collections including Museum of Modern Art, New York; Museum für Gegenswartkunst, Germany; Utah Museum of Fine Arts; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. In 2018 Sun Tunnels and Holes of Light were acquired by Dia Art Foundation, with support from Holt/ Smithson Foundation. Lisa Le Feuvre is the inaugural Executive Director of Holt/Smithson Foundation. A writer and curator, she previously directed the Henry Moore Institute (2010-17) and led the contemporary art program at the National Maritime Museum (2005-09). Katarina Pierre is Director of Bildmuseet, Umeå University, Sweden. Her research focuses on how art addresses post-colonial issues, power hierarchies, and gender.
