I saw a number of Richard Serra’s works at the DIA Beacon Art Museum in Beacon NY. It was a special experience to be in the presence of these massive and unique works of art. I look forward to experienceing his new exhibit at Glenstone in the new pavilion created especially for them.
Four Rounds: Equal Weight, Unequal Measure (2017) is a monument to austerity in art by Richard Serra. The four units push at the absolute limits of what a foundry is capable of forging. Equally impressive is the new structure designed to house the work at its permanent home at Glenstone, the contemporary art museum in Potomac, Maryland, founded by collectors Emily Wei and Mitchell Rales.
This new temple is the latest pavilion designed by Thomas Phifer for the museum. Much like the Rothko Chapel in Houston or the Ellsworth Kelly shrine in Austin, the building is a purpose-built facility for showcasing the work of a single artist. Two artists, really: the new Glenstone pavilion is a conversation in form and material between Phifer and Serra, rendered in concrete and steel.
