{"product_id":"writingsinterviews","title":"Writings\/Interviews","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the most important sculptors of this century  Richard Serra has been a spokesman on the nature and status of art in our day. Best known for site-specific works in steel  Serra has much to say about the relation of sculpture to place  whether urban  natural  or architectural  and about the nature of art itself  whether political  decorative  or personal. In interviews with writers including Douglas and Davis Sylvester  he discusses specific installations and offers insights into his approach to the problem each presents. Interviews by Peter Eisenman and Alan Colquhoun elicit Serras thoughts on the relation of architecture to contemporary sculpture  a primary component in his own work. From essays like \"Extended Notes from Sight Point Road\" to Serras extended commentary on the Tilted Arc fiasco  the pieces in this volume comprise a document of one artists engagement with the practical  philosophical  and political problems of art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946829901877,"sku":"ByrdShop_0226748804","price":47.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780226748801_e3125f4b-5af5-4738-98a0-cd1b1fc3f6b6.jpg?v=1770883080","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/writingsinterviews","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
