Richard Serra at MoMA - Band (2006)

Well, according to any Art 101 class Brown is a HEAVY color, which makes the pieces more physical and organic. If that sounded like I was talking down to you then my message was successfully conveyed.

i like serra. shame i cant actaully be there. hes a psyicla artist, he interacts with his materail.

It's technically astounding for a start, there is no other form on this planet like it. When they constructed it a huge piece fell over, imagine welding all that together. Look at the angles on it. He's the don in my opinion he has some refreshing opinions on art and life in general. peace.

I would love to see this in an outdoor setting.  Like maybe in a park? Waves and curves on green grass - nice visual contrast with the sky above. Wow!

Big deal.

You guys are all idiots who haven't even been to one of his exhibitions.

You have to experience it in real life to appreciate how magnificent it is.

This video unfortunately cannot convey what this piece is about.

I unhesitatingly -- and unapologetically -- say that seeing this, and the accompanying sculptures, in real life, as I did in 2007, would silence all skeptical statements, such as those made in the comments here, to meaningless trivialities.

I love modern sculpture but hate Serra. His work is as bad as it seems. It is as ugly a waste of space. In fact, this is an artistic definition of wasted resource.

Those are sculptures? I mean seriously??? Carpeaux, Michelangelo, Donatello and Rodin they are sculptors this guy is just construction worker or something, there is no real skill in those!

Get your head out of pre-20th century art. You can't compare Modern art with other forms of art past because they aren't even on the same plane. More importantly all those people you listed only made work for some idealized "beauty," how shallow can that be? When you grow a soul then you can understand Modern art, until then stick to your dry dead "masters."
