- Summary:
- Torqued Spirals, Toruses and Spheres announces Richard Serra's recent experimentations with new sculptural shapes and forms. Recently shown at the Gagosian Gallery in New York, his single- and double-torqued ellipses, with their endlessly spiraling interior corridors, give the impression that your body is its own rollercoaster, but one that runs not up and down but round and round. Spheroid and toroid shapes, completely new to Serra's sculptural vocabulary, lock together to create his first sculpture with an inaccessible interior volume. Photographed by Dirk Reinartz and with an essay by critic Hal Foster, this publication is essential for anyone interested in the progression of Serra's oeuvre.
