Andy Goldsworthy: Red Flags | July 1 - 30, 2026

This summer, FOR-SITE presents Andy Goldsworthy: Red Flags, a site-specific exhibition by the internationally acclaimed artist, on view at Fort Mason’s Gateway Pavilion in partnership with Fort Mason Art. Marking the West Coast debut of Goldsworthy’s monumental installation Red Flags (2020), the exhibition features fifty 5 x 8-foot flags, each stained red with earth collected from one of the fifty US states.

Originally hung in New York’s Rockefeller Center, the flags’ presentation at Fort Mason coincides with the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, reflecting on geographic and political boundaries, and on the ties between people, land, and nation. Rather than displaying emblems that differentiate each state, Goldsworthy’s flags ask us to consider what unifies them—and us.
