LEVITATED MASS , Michael Heizer's two-story tall, 340-ton, granite boulder, was moved from a quarry in Riverside, CA to the LA County Museum of Art and mounted atop the walls of a gigantic slot in the earth. The massive 'land sculpture' by one of America's most misunderstood artists, references the expanse of art history - from ancient traditions of megalithic stones to modern forms of abstract geometries and cutting-edge feats of engineering. The boulder's 105-mile journey as it crawled through 22 cities on a football-field length, 206-wheeled trailer attracted and challenged the imagination. The film weaves together the story of the reclusive Heizer, a major metropolitan museum, and the public's reactions to the process and installation of this massive display of modern yet eerily timeless conceptual art.
