In 1969, the artist Robert Smithson proposed a new interpretation of the work of Paul Cezanne (1839-1906). In Smithson's view, Cezanne's painting had been distorted by the Cubists, reduced to an almost abstract play of forms. In contrast to this formalist simplification, Smithson underlined the need to recover the physical reference in Cezanne's work, his strong link to certain places in Provence.
