@solidysnake1 I have a well-calibrated pretentious bullshit detector as well. However, having seen and been in Serra's Torqued Spiral at the Pulitzer Foundation in St. Louis, I have to tell you that this isn't bullshit. You really can't judge a sculpture (an environment, really) like this by video; experienced in person, it is mysterious, disorienting, and nearly overwhelming. I had a gut response to it, not an intellectual one, and it was immensely satisfying.

@manwithnoname123 Thank you.

this is pretentious nonsense! Don't you people realize that?
I always thought art is something that required great skill by artists who trained their whole life in a craft. I appreciate how a virtuoso violinist play a beautiful and complex peace of music.
How does a simple arc worth our attention?

Richard Serra is a large rusty curved fake. He rotates in relation to his own misguided ego.

It's really awesome and very difficult to achieve materializing a complete mental process! This is more than great!

It's fascinating to hear Serra comment on the genesis of the Torqued Ellipse - how a building hundreds of years old old inspired a work of art centuries later. Serra is a monumental talent, a sculptor of great intelligence and depth, producing a body of work like no other artist. and the physicality of his immense steel pieces is really awe-inspiring. Yes, it's tiring to still hear people questioning the validity of "Modern art". Geeez, the Armory show was in 1913 for Christsakes!

Speak for yourself. Or inform your readers with a legitimate reason for a comment so banal as your own.
