Some of Snelson's sculptures were installed outdoors on the Albright-Knox’s campus and more than 30 of his smaller works—six drawings, 12 panoramic photographs and models, and drawings for Portrait of an Atom—were installed inside the museum. The artist attended the Members' Preview  and conducted a taped interviewed with Schultz for the Video Vasari archive.

After opening at the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C., and its presentation in Buffalo, the exhibition traveled to the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Gallery at the University of Houston, Texas.
