Large-scale steel sculptures by Richard Serra on display in London.

The Gagosian Gallery London exhibits recent works by Richard Serra, one of the most important sculptors of the 20th century.

The monumental steel sculptures of Richard Serra  alter the perceptions of space and proportion.  Inspired early in his career by modern dance and Japanese Zen gardens, the artist create works that play with the movement of the viewer.

“It’s all about centralizing the space in different ways. How people move in relation to space, that’s essentially what I’m up to” Richard Serra
