Richard Serra

I chose Gutter Corner Splash: Late Shift (1969/1995) due to the contrast it has compared to his other works that appear more wall like and stand tall. This piece however lies on the ground and has a splashing effect on to the wall. Serra claimed "I was interested in my ability to move in relation to material and have that material move me." He appreciated the laws of gravity and wanted it to show through his work. He also incorporated old tactics of sculpture and present day methods. This one just stood out to me more because it wasn't like most of the others.
