Asphalt Rundown, Rome, 1969, was Smithsons first flow, situated in an abandoned and mundane section of a gravel and dirt quarry in Rome. A large dumptruck released a load of asphalt down a gutted and gullied cliff already marked by time.
Nancy Holt's description of "entropy made visible" is the most concise description possible for Smithson's Asphalt Rundown. I am also happy to have seen that this post also includes the Glue Pour and Smithson's remarks about entropy. This is a rare and valuable post. Usually one would have to go to a museum to find rare footage such as this. Thank you.
