I saw this in person it was amazing. Well I had to come back and say I saw this exhibit at the MOMA. It was one of the coolest exhibitions I ever went to.

I love these classic segments, but they made me think: Who are the artists of today? Who are the young up-and-comers? Sunday Morning used to feature stories about established artists and those who were on the cusp of greatness.

I love Richard Serra's art. It's majestic and it serves no purpose other than form itself.

He has some wonderful installations that are so calming and peaceful. I’m sorry for his ill treatment for his piece in NY which included the odd sequence of acceptance and rejection. But a great artist does not uniformly make great pieces. If it wasn’t great, they should have rejected it in the first place, but they didn’t which is unfair to him. He’s probably had more than his fair share of criticisms given the enormous size of his pieces which are more likely to be seen in public. If paid for by the public, likely to inspire commentary.
