Event Description

As a pilot in the 1960s, Guido Robert Deiro befriended two young artists, Michael Heizer and Walter De Maria. Deiro's work as a project manager for both artists had a tremendous impact on the Earthworks movement in the American West. From these experiences, Deiro acquired an unprecedented collection of memorabilia related to Heizer’s and De Maria’s work. $10 / $8 Museum members. Purchase tickets online at nevadaart.org/tickets or at the Museum admissions desk.
