Description
A studious view of Richard Serra's recently premiered forged steel sculpture and new drawings using his trademark paintstick technique.
"Enigmatic, arresting, audacious: Richard Serra now and forever" - The Brooklyn Rail
Richard Serra's hugely successful body of work consistently explores the possibilities of form and matter. Serra's steel sculptures are held in major collections internationally, and his drawings assert themselves as abstract victories. Through the use of black paintstick—a combination of oil paint, wax, and pigment, which he has used since 1971—Serra's drawings convey a strong sense of optical weight, acutely similar to the physical presence of his sculptures.
2022, the artist's largest single forged round to date, investigates properties of weight and scale. While the exhibition allowed viewers to encounter Serra's immense forged round and inky drawings in relation to their own space and bodies, the catalogue is an opportunity for intimate engagement with Serra's works through stunning reproductions.
