Richard Serra



My favorite sculptures at Dia: Beacon was Richard Serra’s Torqued Ellipses.  The shape and size of them was interesting to look at from afar but the best part was the ability to walk inside them. While they all looked kind of similar from the outside, each one gave you a unique experience. The inside of them was almost like an optical illusion in how the walls curved, making you feel like you were leaning to one side as you walked and how the paths became narrow and then widened.
