Levitated Mass by artist Michael Heizer is composed of a 456-foot-long slot constructed on LACMA’s campus, over which is placed a 340-ton granite megalith. The slot gradually descends to fifteen feet in depth, running underneath the boulder.

This is on view at LACMA’s Resnick North Lawn (no admission ticket required) at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
