Richard Serra: House of Cards



Richard Serra lives and works in New York's Long Island. He is known for his abstract artwork and use of towering steel beams. This sculpture was crafted in 1968-1969. It uses 4 steel square plates each measuring 55 (almost 5 feet tall). This is a smaller scale sculpture of his, as some of his artworks tower over 50 ft.  I particularly liked this because of the colors used and the simplicity of this piece.  The silvery blue hues along each of these 4 sides reminds me of the moon and the dark sky.
