Artist Profile by The Museum of Modern Art in New York

In a video profile by The Museum of Modern Art in New York, Richard Serra describes the ideas and process behind Equal (2015), from forging the steel to the encounter with the finished work. This monumental installation was acquired by the museum in 2015 following its debut presentation at David Zwirner in New York the same year. In his review of the gallery exhibition, art critic Jerry Saltz stated in New York Magazine, "This is his best show in more than 15 years of great shows, and it resounds with a complexity and cosmic instability not seen in solitary objects since Giorgio Morandi's miraculous vibrating arrangements."

Accompanying the presentation of Equal at David Zwirner was the publication of Richard Serra: Forged Steel, with texts by Serra and Richard Shiff. Produced in close collaboration with the artist, the book is the first in-depth overview of his work using this material. Published by David Zwirner Books | Steidl
