MORE ON ART IN THE GUGGENHEIM.

"A MATTER OF TIME" by Richard Serra, San Francisco, b. 1939.

The artist used traditional geometric forms and models combined with new technologies to produce unconventional shapes. The shades of color of the works change as the weathering steel undergoes a gradual oxidization process. The relationship between sculpture and the human body is explored through scale, equilibrium, weight, and tension.

This installation is the type you must experience by being in it, and it is overwhelming. I am so fortunate to have new artist friends who help me broaden my understandingand apprecition of all types of art. The massive amounts of steel and the technical expertise it took to create these artistic formations is mind-boggling.

During the time we visited, a special exhibition on surreal art was there, and I think I might purchase this sofa for my new home in Billings. :) It's by Salvador Dali and titled "Mae West's Lips."
