Description

First Edition catalogue of Serra’s 1986 exhibition at MoMa.
Richard Serra: Sculpture by Rosalind E. Krauss. Edited and with an introduction by Laura Rosenstock, with an essay by Douglas Crimp.

From the dust jacket:
Since the mid-1960s, the American artist Richard Serra has been challenging traditional concepts of sculpture. He has experimented with process art, “casting” molten lead into the angle formed by floor and wall to create a series of Splash Pieces, and with constructed sculpture, leaning massive slabs of lead and steel against each other to make his Prop Pieces. His large outdoor installations — created for such diverse sites as a plaza in Barcelona, the New York exit from the Holland Tunnel, and three hundred yards of field in rural Canada — actively involve the viewer in a space-time continuum.

In this book, nearly 120 works are illustrated, from early rubber and neon-tubing pieces to late large-scale projects in steel. Rosalind E. Krauss, author of Passages in Modern Sculpture (1977) and The Originality of the Avant-Garde and Other Modernist Myths (1985), ana lyzes Serra’s work and its intellectual and perceptual basis. Douglas Crimp investigates Serra’s public sculp ture and his redefinition of site specificity. Laura Rosenstock, Assistant Curator in the Museum’s Department of Painting and Sculpture, provides an introduction, as well as a chronology, selected bibliography, and lists of the artist’s exhibitions and his films and videotapes. This book accompanies an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.
