Dear Art Educators,

I can see the work of Richard Serra inspiring a lesson.....

Richard Serra Sculpture: Forty Years
http://www.moma.org/exhibitions/2007/serra/
Online presentation is in black and white - plenty of color images can
be found on line.

From Scout Report (copyright 2007):
"Richard Serra's work has usually involved very large sculptures, and many of
them have tested the limits of museum display techniques. Recently, the
Museum of Modern Art mounted a forty-year survey of Serra's work, and for
those who can't make it to New York, this online collection is a nice way to
look at some of the pieces featured at the museum. (review by Max Grinnell)

1990s in the U.S. and abroad."
