Robert Smithson's iconic earthwork Spiral Jetty was built at Rozel Point, in the Great Salt Lake in April 1970. The film Spiral Jetty was completed later that year, and the third component in this ensemble, an essay also titled "The Spiral Jetty" was published in 1972. In 1999, the Estate of Robert Smithson donated the sculpture ensemble to Dia Art Foundation, New York.
