MOMA is having a retrospective for the sculptor, richard serra and has put together a nice little page for the occasion.
i do appreciate it when major galleries make their collections available online. (the moma's is here.)
there's no substitute for seeing the real thing though. the subtleties and texture of most artworks can't be captured in a photo. i had no idea of what the surface of Les Demoiselles d'Avignon was like until i saw it on the gallery wall, yet it is one of the key paintings of the 20th century. i like to be able to look at a painting and see the brushstrokes.
