Richard Serra, born November 2, 1939 in San Francisco, is an American contemporary art artist.
It is related to minimalism and is known for its metal sculptures. He also directed films. He lives and works in New York and Nova Scotia.
After studying English literature, he studied Fine Arts at Yale University between 1961 and 1964. To finance his plastic arts studies, he works in a steel mill, which will be of great importance in his future work. Such as the fact that his father worked on shipyards2. Similarly, a visit to Paris in 1965, where he worked at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, enabled him to discover and admire the work of Brancusi: "This is where my passage to sculpture took place "2. He exhibited for the first time in Rome in 1966 and at Leo Castelli in New York in 1969. He returned to New York at the end of 1966, where he lived and worked since then.
