I knew the contemporary art world had shifted when Lisa Le Feuvre, Executive Director of the Holt/Smithson Foundation, described Nancy Holt as a mystic — a word American art history struggled to embrace.

In this episode of the Female Frequency Podcast, Lisa Le Feuvre takes us inside the life and work of Nancy Holt, a foundational figure in twentieth-century contemporary art — whose work graces the cover of Lucy Lippard's Overlay and whose Sun Tunnels became the first Land art work by a woman to enter the Dia Art Foundation collection.

As we approach the summer solstice, we revisit Nancy Holt's Sun Tunnels — the monumental Earthwork in Utah's Great Basin Desert, aligned with the sun, the stars — Draco, Perseus, Columba, and Capricorn — and human experience.

Together, we explore art as instrument — perception, consciousness, feminism, astronomy, creativity, and attention.

Stay with us until the end, where Lisa speaks directly to artists about legacy building and archiving your creative practice.

Female Frequency Podcast, hosted by Jodie Nelson, brings you the story behind the story at the intersection of art and perception — so the next wave of storytellers knows they can do it too.
