Richard Serra
Minimalist sculptor Richard Serra, based between New York City and Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, may be described as the art world’s father of steel. He is particularly renowned for monumental arcs, spirals and ellipses made from massive sheets of oxidized CorTen steel, which occupy large interior and exterior spaces and dwarf visitors who wander through them, like abstract mazes. The most famous of these works is his "Torqued Ellipse" series, begun in 1966 and inspired by a Baroque 17th-century Roman church.
These site-specific sculptures, whose parts are manufactured in Germany, can be found from King City, Ontario, and the Netherlands, to the Storm King Art Center and Dia: Beacon, both in Upstate New York.
Before turning to steel, Serra produced abstract sculptures from nontraditional materials — fiberglass, rubber or molten lead — which he splashed or threw in their liquid states against the walls of studios or exhibition spaces, recording their shapes and angles. He also worked in video and performance art, producing a number of films that address the manufacture and use of his signature material: steel.
Since 1971, Serra has produced large-scale drawings that relate to or are inspired by completed sculptures. Made with ink, charcoal, lithographic crayon or paintstick on handmade paper or linen, such works as Trajectory #4 or Double Rift II clearly reflect the forms and feeling of his signature steel sculptures.

- Victor Pasmore Etching from "The Dance of Man In Modern Times Portfolio"By Victor Pasmore 1Located in Stamford, CTAn etching and aquatint by Victor Pasmore from his portfolio titled "The Dance of Man in Modern Times". Victor Pasmore was one of the leading members of the English school of Abstract Expressionism. Please note this is one print from a larger portfolio. Other prints from this portfolio are available. A bit about Pasmore- Beginning in 1947, he developed a purely abstract style under the influence of Ben Nicholson and other artists associated with Circle, becoming a pioneering figure of the revival of interest in Constructivism in Britain following the War. [6] Pasmore's abstract work, often in collage and construction of reliefs, pioneered the use of new materials and was sometimes on a large architectural scale. Herbert Read described Pasmore's new style as "The most revolutionary event in post-war British art".[7] In 1950, he was commissioned to design an abstract mural for a bus depot in Kingston upon Thames[8] and the following year Pasmore contributed a mural to the Festival of Britain that promoted a number of the British Constructivists. Pasmore was a supporter of fellow artist Richard Hamilton, giving him a teaching job in Newcastle and contributing a constructivist structure to the exhibition "This Is Tomorrow" in collaboration with Erno Goldfinger and Helen Phillips...Category

This work is also protected by glass Every item of our Gallery, upon request, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Sabrina Egidi official Expert in Italian furniture for the Chamber of Commerce of Rome and for the Rome Civil Courts. Born in 1918 in Catanzaro into a middle-class family, in 1945 he moved to Rome where he frequented the young avant-garde made up of the exponents of Gruppo Forma 1 (Carla Accardi, Ugo Attardi, Pietro Consagra, Piero Dorazio, Mino Guerrini, Achille Perilli, Antonio Sanfilippo and Giulio Turcato). After his figurative beginnings and early experiments, he began to paint abstract-geometric pictures inspired by the works of Vasilij Kandinskij and Piet Mondrian. In 1950, he exhibited in Paris at the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles. In February 1951, he participated in the exhibition 'Abstract and Concrete Art in Italy - 1951' organised by Palma Bucarelli and Giulio Carlo Argan at the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rome. In 1951 he was awarded a scholarship by the Fulbright Foundation, which allowed him to go to the United States as an 'Artist in Residence' at the University of Kansas City. In 1952, he held his second solo exhibition at the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery of Art in Kansas City. For Harvard University, he completed a performance of epistaltic poetry. In the autumn he returned to Rome, devoting himself to phonetic production. In 1953, he realised that the pictorial medium was no longer a suitable medium for the expression of his poetics and suddenly had what he called a 'Zen enlightenment': the discovery of the advertising poster as an artistic expression. This is how décollage was born: Rotella took pieces of posters torn off the street from the walls of Rome and glued them to the canvas, then reworked them in the studio, adopting the collage of the Cubists and contaminating them with elements borrowed from an informal matrix close to Hans Arp and Jean Fautrier and with the Dadaist ready-made. Still in 1955, Carlo Cardazzo organised an exhibition entirely dedicated to décollage and retro d'affiches in his Galleria del Naviglio in Milan. His works are exhibited in London, at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA). In 1958 he took part in the exhibition 'New Trends in Italian Art' organised by Lionello Venturi at the Rome branch of the Rome-New York Art Foundation. The following year he met the French critic Pierre Restany, with whom he began a long association. In 1960 he joined the Nouveau Réalisme of which Pierre Restany was the theoretician and which brought together, among others, Yves Klein, Spoerri, Tinguely, César, Arman, Christo and Niki de Saint Phalle. Along with décollages, Rotella also executed assemblages and ready-mades with objects purchased from junk dealers such as bottle caps, ropes, wicker baskets and pieces of fabric. In May 1961 he exhibited in the historic exhibition À 40° au-dessus de Dada, curated by Restany at Galerie J in Paris. In 1962, the same French gallery hosted the series of works inspired by the world of cinema on the occasion of the 'Cinecittà' exhibition. His décollages from the early 1960s are characterised by the presence of stars of the silver screen and music such as Marilyn Monroe, Liz Taylor, Marlon Brando and Elvis Presley. During this last exhibition, his work was compared with artists from France (Arman, Christo, Raymond Hains, Yves Klein, Martial Raysse, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely), Italy (Enrico Baj, Gianfranco Baruchello, Tano Festa, Mario Schifano), and the USA (Peter Agostini...Category
