About this experience
In the desert to the south of Las Vegas, Nevada, a large colorful art composition rises. Seven colossal stone forms defy gravity. Created by the contemporary Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone, they have caused a stir in the global art community. It's time to see them with your own eyes and make your own assessment.
What to expect
Seven Magic Mountains
One of the largest land art installations in the United States built in the last 40 years. It took nearly 5 years to create! It consists of 7 abstract compositions made of boulders. Each stone is brightly painted, which, along with its impressive height, makes the art object stand out in the desert landscape.
What is this installation about?
Ugo Rondinone's work has been interpreted in hundreds of different ways, from human impact on nature to a glowing spot in the middle of the desert, very similar to Las Vegas itself. Let's discuss different versions, and perhaps you will come up with your own.
Lunch at the oldest bar in Southern Nevada (optional)
If you wish, we can stop for a meal at the colorful Pioneer Saloon, which has been operating for over 100 years.
