72 Hours of Art in Salt Lake City: Museum Hopping, Spiral Jetty and Sculpture on the Slopes

Billionaire Reed Hastings, the former CEO of Netflix, has transformed Utah’s Powder Mountain ski resort into a unique 'skiable outdoor art museum.' Collaborating with landscape architect Reed Hilderbrand, the resort now features major installations by artists such as Nancy Holt, James Turrell, and EJ Hill. This development positions the resort as a contemporary companion to the region's historic land art landmarks, including Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty and Holt’s Sun Tunnels.

Comment | EJ Hill's New York performance personifies the art of endurance

EJ Hill is performing 'Yearning for an Absolute' (2025), the centerpiece of his solo show at 52 Walker in New York, where he kneels on a church kneeler for eight continuous hours each day without food, water, or breaks. The performance runs from June 25 to September 13, totaling 56 days across 12 weeks, and completes a "performance triptych" with his earlier works from 2016 and 2018. Hill describes it as far more grueling than anything he has done before, experiencing widespread physical pain and mental challenges.
