Renowned for his monumental, site-specific sculptures, Richard Serra transformed viewers' perceptions of space, scale, and movement. His commanding works—composed of towering, curved, and stacked sheets of steel—invite physical interaction, encouraging viewers to walk around and through them, engaging with the shifting spatial dynamics they create. Beyond his sculptural feats, Serra was also known for his intense black-and-white abstract drawings, executed with oil stick on paper, which reflect the same physicality and force as his large-scale installations. Over his prolific career, Serra’s works were installed in major public spaces worldwide—most famously Tilted Arc (1981), which bisected New York's Federal Plaza for nearly a decade—and he held solo exhibitions at leading institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art, the Stedelijk Museum, and the Museo Reina Sofía. His works remain highly sought after at auction, frequently commanding seven-figure prices.
