The New York Earth Room is an interior sculpture by the artist Walter De Maria that has been installed in a loft at 141 Wooster Street in New York City since 1977.[1] The sculpture is a permanent installation of 250 cubic yards (197 cubic meters) of earth in 3,600 (335 square meters) square feet of floor space, and 22 inch depth of material (56 centimeters).[2]

History

The first Earth Room was the Munich Earth Room, installed in 1968 by Walter De Maria and Heiner Friedrich at Galerie Heiner Friedrich in Munich.

The work was first installed in New York City in 1977 as a 3-month exhibition, at what was then the Heiner Friedrich Gallery. It remained on display long afterward, and when Friedrich helped to establish the Dia Art Foundation in 1980, he supported its permanent sponsorship of the New York Earth Room.[3]

Similarly to De Maria's Lightning Field installation, his Broken Kilometer and New York Earth Room installations in New York remain on continuous view.[4]

The installation had the same caretaker, painter Bill Dilworth,[5] since 1989 to 2025.[6] It is maintained by the Dia Art Foundation who consider it one of their 12 locations and sites they manage. Dia maintains an apartment on the same floor as The New York Earth Room.[7]
