I think re: the art of the 70s - there were people like Tony Rickaby and
Smithson of course who worked publicly; it was also an era of public
sculpture. I'm not sure the dividing lines are this clear at all - look at
Buren, Beuys' coyote piece, etc. There was a lot of political/conceptual
art in the 70s as well; it's just not that well-known now as the canon-
makers are busy rewriting history/working through 'genre.'
