Timothée Chalamet Visits Michael Heizer’s ‘City’ for Vogue Photoshoot
Actor Timothée Chalamet traveled to Michael Heizer’s monumental Land art installation, City, located in the Nevada desert, accompanied by photographer Annie Leibovitz for a Vogue photoshoot. This vast artwork spans a mile and a half long and half a mile wide, unveiling in 2022 after more than five decades of construction starting in 1970.
Chalamet’s Experience at City
Reflecting on the artwork, Chalamet described the visit as “just a totally remote experience.” Beyond this brief art commentary, his focus during the profile was largely on his acting projects, including the upcoming film Marty Supreme, directed by Josh Safdie, in which he portrays a former table-tennis champion facing hardships.
Praise for Photographer Annie Leibovitz
“Annie is an absolute beast,” Chalamet remarked. “Sometimes when people become so ubiquitous or iconic, you can lose sight of how much effort goes in. She’s the first one up at 5:30 a.m. You’re coming downstairs, and she’s poring over materials.”
He added, “She almost had a crazy compulsive creative attitude. She wasn’t concerned with anything but getting great stuff, and then I’m sure she went on to the next thing.”
Summary: Timothée Chalamet’s visit to Michael Heizer’s vast land art installation highlights the remote and immersive nature of City, while showcasing Annie Leibovitz’s intense dedication during their Vogue collaboration.
