In this excerpt of a longer documentary, Richard Serra explains his mammoth installation "Matter of Time" at the Guggenheim Museum ("R.S. - Thinking on your feet", 2005).

His perception that time is subjective depending on the point of the viewer of the art is nothing new. It is reminiscent of the Unesco protected structure in Zimbabwe Africa which is far older than what most archeologists and architechts would have us believe.
congratulations mr richard serra, who is the crew? was the installation permanent or temporary? if not, is there a storage facility where we might find this metal perhaps iron sculpture or foundry where the diagrams might be located we are very interested in the details of this art/documentary, could this installation or pieces have been accomplished without the use of machines? mammoth is modernism? since we could not be in bilbao we feel very fortunate this film complimented your installation
I think in Richard's spare time he sets up models of his controversial piece Tilted Arc and puts a model family next to it. He sets up a large fan to blow it over on top of them, then he hammers it down with his fist while yelling profanities.
@@okafka5446 I could write an essay to answer that question. But have no time now to do so. The Bilbao Guggenheim has every right to exhibit what they want. I suppose my larger point is that there are other artists whose work is also worthy of being shown. Considering however that Serra created the large steel sculptures (I saw them in Los Angeles and was duly impressed) it would be difficult and expensive to move those around every few years.
😆 Sounds slightly batty and conceited here, and to some extent his commentary totally misses the emotional impacts on people of the piece and possibly from himself in designing it... But this is inadvertently hilarious and the piece itself is a work of genius. This video doesn't in any way do it justice. Do see if if you ever have a chance - one of the two best artworks I've ever experienced.
I admire his art, but I admire his bullshitting skill even more. "duration of time isn't in the object, but it's in the viewer". "time is protracted, elongated, or compressed".
moved me deeply when i saw r s work at this museum, love it felt it, inspired by it
I loved this installation! In fact, I hummed a single note as I walked through each piece. Wondrous sound echoes bouncing back onto my face!
The Richard Serra's serpent is in the Bilbao Guggenheim Museum since its beginning.
Incredibly beautiful, a walking meditation
brilliant.... i like the way we works.
I feel well by this work - it breaks the normal aesthetics!
Je suis ravie de voir l'installation de ces oeuvres monumentales, installées au Guggenheim de Bilbao

Anyone from Dan Brown
An exhibition of Serra's work that will run for 25 years? That's a long time. How does that serve the art community?
How would you like the art community to be served?

Divorce from life! That nihilism should be made to live by plunging it into fire,
