Richard Serra at the MoMA

I went to the MoMA a few months back to check out the Richard Serra sculpture exhibit. His very large steal pieces are overwhelming. You need to experience them yourself. The weather took a beating on the outside sculptures, which created beautiful textures and colors on the surface. The massive organic shapes would create a certain spacial sensation. While walking through it, it felt as if I was riding a wave. Having trees fall over the work, and the light hitting it at certain angles was a beautiful sight. Something so massive and simple, yet so rough and grand. Once inside the exhibit, the huge terracotta color works stood out dramatically against the stark white room. People were tiny compared to the space. It was quiet in the rooms. I noticed how people where taken aback once they walked in, and enjoying the experience that these simple and impressive forms where giving all of us. I really enjoyed Serra’s work, I would love to see it out on the streets and the parks. Did you get a chance to see it? What are your thoughts…
