Initiated by Fernandez's long-term engagement with challenging socially constructed ideas about place and landscape and her immersive research on Smithson's art and ideas, Teresita Fernandez / Robert Smithson explores convergences and divergences in the artists' thinking and making around sites, seeing, deep time, the cosmos, the subterranean, material intelligence, geological agency, and cartographic fictions.

Produced in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name at SITE SANTA FE, this volume is structured as a subjective, intergenerational conversation between two artists whose conceptual, research-based practices take form through experimental sculptural approaches to matter and material. The book's structure tracks closely with the organization of the show, as rooms centered on resonant themes in the artists' work become chapters in the publication for the reader to navigate at a different pace. In addition to a text by Fernandez, written initially as part of a performance at SITE, and selected writing from and excerpted interviews with Smithson, the book includes new essays by Lisa Le Feuvre, the co-curator of the exhibition and Executive Director of Holt/Smithson Foundation; Carla Acevedo-Yates; and Lucy R. Lippard, along with an excerpt of a republished text by Nadiah Rivera Fellah and a conversation between Fernandez and fellow artist Cecilia Vicuna.

The work of Teresita Fernandez can be found in the collections of the Blanton Museum of Art, Austin; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville; Ford Foundation, New York; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; Israel Museum, Jerusalem; LVMH Collection, Paris; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas; New Orleans Museum of Art; Seattle Art Museum; Palm Springs Art Museum; Perez Art Museum Miami; Philadelphia Museum of Art; Saint Louis Art Museum; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington; Speed Art Museum, Louisville; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; and Whitney Museum of Art.

Guggenheim Museum, New York; Tate Modern, London; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York among others.
