Abstract

At 71 the indefatigable sculptor Richard Serra is making some of the most intensely visceral work of his career. His latest sculptures in weatherproof steel are big enough to test the boundaries of the immense Gagosian Gallery on 24th Street in Chelsea, though their power has less to do with their sheer magnitude than with the way they carve up the space. The show is Mr. Serra's 12th sculpture exhibition at Gagosian, and his best in New York since a 2007 retrospective at MoMA. A touring survey of his drawings, organized by the Menil Collection and seen at the Metropolitan Museum this past summer, opens next month at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
