Richard Serra. Equal-Parallel: Guernica-Bengasi
From the 1980s onwards, Richard Serra went deeper into sculpture’s relationship with space with several projects in which, by his intervention in a specific architectural space, he turned it into a sculptural space. This was the idea behind Equal-Parallel: Guernica-Bengasi, in which the symmetry and balance in the conception of an architectural space are enhanced by the presence of the work, creating, as Armin Zweite has written, a tense articulation of an architectural space, the upper part of which is a smooth barrel vault, flooded with white light.
