Wow. I've admired Serra's sculptural work "from afar" for years, but I have never heard him speak, about it or his drawing. It's fantastic to hear such an articulate account of a singular vision.
For many years I have appreciated Richard Serra drawings. I find many of them to affect me like being in front a large container of whipped creamer and I want to devour the whole thing at one gulp ! I so much relate to his reaction against showing his sketchbook. I feel the same way. I is a personal self communication and interrelationships of thought process, self exposure, trial and error and graphic means to all kinds of other issues. It's only for me. It's personal.
I could't see the exhibition but I bought the catalogue - which is a remarkable book in itself - so well printed. The blacks are amazing. An experience in itself. The interview is above 20mn long and you want to hear more from this artist so 'in tune' with his practise. Patrice Riboust
Rose is out of his depth in this interview. Some of his questions are downright embarrassing. Putting that to one side, however, Serra's comments are very insightful - really interesting to hear him speak about the importance of drawing to his artistic practice.
11:50 Rose didn't want to call Van Gogh "insane" in front of Serra. What an hypocrite, obviously Serra it not insane, he is an amazing person and a brilliant artist. There's no need to avoid the fact that many artists are "insane". This is not the case.
Well Van Gogh is not insane...he is probably one of the greatest men ever lived. It has became such a convenient thing for people to describe him as ‘insane’ to conclude all his artistic and personal struggle, as well as his dedication and hard work. If only you read his letters.
Vincent had some mental stress, but was the furthest thing from "insane". Try reading the full 1600 pages of his personal letters (many to brother Theo) as I have done. They are amongst the most insightful, beautiful, cogent, and artistic utterances ever recorded by putting pen to paper, throughout the entire multi-millenia of recorded art history. Serra does not even count as an extremely minor footnote, in this context.

He's one of the rare artist who knows the definition of art
I'm listening to this and crying at the some time, this is so good.....

Wow so interesting his thoughts 💭
This is fascinating. I suggest reading his interview with Lizzie Borden, "About Drawing: An Interview," if you enjoyed this video.
TKS SO MUCHHHH
do you know where i can find it online without buying the book?

yup you're so right, he comes across as a total moron...
there is no such thing as a dumb question. it's how you educate yourself.
A great sculptor!

That interviewer is so rude!

i have to watch this for my research task -____-
Why is Charlie Rose so bad at interviewing and more importantly, listening? It's almost impressive.
Serra has a great mind, no interviewer could keep up with him, it’s just too bad that Rose wasn’t more humble.
Meanwhile u would have asked him softball questions
@@Palestinian_holocaust I can assure you, I know nothing about Softball. But then, maybe that's why I should've asked!
