Description

Conversations about Sculpture offers an intimate look at the life and work of renowned artist Richard Serra. Spanning six decades, his career has been shaped by a range of influences, from his early experiences in steel mills to his exploration of materiality and site specificity. This thought-provoking dialogue, drawn from talks between Serra and acclaimed art historian Hal Foster, reveals the artist's key commitments and sources of inspiration. The conversation covers a broad range of topics, including the impact of music, dance, and architecture on Serra's work, as well as the controversies and contradictions his pieces have faced. Through this probing dialogue, we gain insight into the evolution of sculpture across time and culture, from antiquity to today. Beautifully illustrated with duotone images, Conversations about Sculpture provides a unique perspective on one of the medium's most brilliant figures.
