In 1967, curator Eleanor Green organized an exhibition, Scale as Content, at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The exhibition consisted of three sculptures, each debuting at the show; Smoke by Tony Smith, Broken Obelisk by Barnett Newman, and The X by Ronald Bladen. Smoke (1), installed in one of the two grand atria in the Corcoran, gained national attention when featured on the cover of Time Magazine on Oct. 13, 1967 (2). This temporary piece was constructed of plywood and painted black. Smoke was reconstructed in its permanent, aluminum form in 2005 and installed in the atrium of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) (3). Broken Obelisk, installed outdoors on the plaza in front of the Corcoran (4), was one of Newman’s rare forays into sculpture, having made his name as an abstract expressionist painter. This weathering (Corten) steel piece was one of four Obelisks fabricated and the first to be exhibited. It now sits in front of the Rothko Chapel in Houston (5). Bladen’s The X sat in the second, matching atrium of the Corcoran (6). Like Smoke, it too seemed too big for its setting, extending nearly (but not quite) to the second story balustrade. Like both Smoke and Broken Obelisk it has been moved to another city. The X now sits, rather undramatically, in a park in Miami Florida (7) (although this author is not certain if it is the original aluminum sculpture or a reconstruction).
