THINKING ON YOUR FEET

THINKING ON YOUR FEET

A documentary, 'Thinking on Your Feet', directed by Maria Anna Tappeiner on the contemporary sculpting giant Richard Serra is now on screen at Film Forum in New York until September 2nd.

The documentary enables spectators to follow the production process of the artist’s major grand scale sculpture ‘The Matter of Time,’ which was commissioned by Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain for $20 million.

In the film, a breathtaking scene where 40 ton solid steel plates are put together manually was included to highlight the ongoing dynamic tension between human labour, mathematics, and gravity that Serra persistently communicates through his sculptural works.

A tale of a contemporary sculptural legend condensed into 94 minutes - a must see that Serra fans should not miss.
