Michael Heizer has unveiled a major exhibition titled "Negative Sculpture" at Gagosian’s West 21st Street gallery in New York. The installation features two massive works, Convoluted Line A and Convoluted Line B, which consist of steel liners filled with crushed red granite embedded into a raised gallery floor. To achieve the artist's vision of negative space without excavating the building's foundation, the gallery undertook a complex two-year engineering project to elevate the entire floor surface, matching the specific concrete hue of Heizer’s Nevada studio.
