Robert Smithson and Richard Serra both believed that sculpture should have a dialog with its environment. Two sculptures of Richard Serra are shown in an urban environment - Fulcrum in the Broadgate development at Liverpool Street in London and Tilted Arc in New York - the latter has since been destroyed. Spin Out, a tribute to Robert Smithson, is in a rural site at the Kroller-Muller Museum in Holland. Robert Smithson's work is represented by Broken Circle, Spiral Hill, which is in a disused quarry in Northern Holland. Smithson, who died in 1973, greatly influenced Serra's work.
