Torqued Spirals, Toruses, and Spheres

by Richard Serra

Torqued Spirals, Toruses and Spheres inaugurates Richard Serra's recent experimentations with new sculptural shapes and forms. His single- and double-torqued ellipses, with their endlessly spiraling interior corridors, give the impression that your body is its own rollercoaster, one that runs not up and down but round and round. Spheroid and toroid shapes (new to Serra's sculptural vocabulary) lock together to create his first ever 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.

Mostly images, all the texts can be found in other places next to better essays about a man's work that deserves a little better.
