Title: Richard Serra, Sculptor
Post by: JimH on March 26, 2024, 06:54:40 pm

Died today at 85, favorite of mine.  Giant (5 meters high) curling bands of steel.  Bent by a ship builder in Holland.  Made of Cor-Ten Steel, color of rust.  Several big ones at DIA Beacon (https://diaart.org/visit/visit-our-locations-sites/dia-beacon-beacon-united-states).
