A Retrospective






This first retrospective of drawings by the artist Richard Serra ( born 1939 ) traces the last forty years of his activity in the medium - both as an independent art form and as an element of his sculptural practice. Serra's innovative ideas radically transformed the traditional understanding of drawing as two - dimensional representation on paper, expanding the practice through novel techniques, unusual media, monumental scale, and carefully constructed relationships of space.
