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.
