The Commons, a survey of work from the last decade, demonstrates how Kevin Schmidt displaces cultural spectacles such as billboards or rock-show lights from the urban environment into wilderness settings. He questions notions of the sublime and shared bodies of knowledge, proposing a utopian assertion of the commons, where both culture and the land are publicly available.
