Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring Richard Serra, from the "Place" episode in Season 1 of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.

"Place" premiered in September 2001 on PBS.

The segment follows Richard Serra as he guides the viewer through several massive installations he has done in New York, San Francisco, and Bilbao, Spain. Having worked with metal for the past forty years, Serra creates sculptures shape and stretch steel like rubber, carving intimate moments out of public spaces.

Richard Serra was born in San Francisco in 1938. Learn more about the artist at: https://art21.org/artist/richard-serra
