An outdoor
modern art installation in the
desert in
southwestern
New Mexico. Constructed in
1977 by
Walter De Maria. It's a 1-
mile by 1-
kilometer
rectangular grid array of 400 stainless
steel poles
that are meant to
attract lightning.
Visitors
to this installation arrive in the
afternoon and
spend the
night in a
cabin that has a nice view
of the show. Some nights there is
a lot of lightning,
and other nights there's
nothing. You take your
chances.
