{"product_id":"notebooks","title":"Richard Serra","description":"\u003cp\u003eRichard Serra’s reputation as one of the great sculptors of our time is well known, yet the role of sketches in his working practice is not known. This suite\n\u003cbr\u003eof books will change that. Serra keeps a large library of notebooks from throughout his career in his studio, hundreds in total. Contained within them are\n\u003cbr\u003edelicate sketches of his travels, of landscapes, architecture and of other ideas, some of which the artist developed into mature sculptures and drawings. Serra has personally selected five of these precious notebooks, which are reproduced here in facsimile. Born in San Francisco in 1939, Richard Serra is one of the most important contemporary sculptors. His work is famous for its size and weight, and he\n\u003cbr\u003ehas created permanent site-specific works for many public and private venues. Serra’s books at Steidl include Sculpture 1985–1998 (1999) and Torqued Spirals, Toruses and Spheres (2001).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVol. 1 Egypt, 1989, 44 pages, 9.8 x 13 in. \/ 25 x 33.5 cm\n\u003cbr\u003eClothbound hardcover\n\u003cbr\u003eVol. 2 Luxembourg Exchange, 1996, 48 pages, 15 x 11 in. \/ 38.2 x 27.8 cm\n\u003cbr\u003eClothbound hardcover\n\u003cbr\u003eVol. 3 Spiral Sections, 92 pages, 12.6 x 9.4 in. \/ 32 x 24 cm\n\u003cbr\u003eClothbound hardcover\n\u003cbr\u003eVol. 4 Ronchamp 1, 1991, stapled softcover\n\u003cbr\u003e24 sheets, 12 x 8.3 inch \/ 31 x 21 cm\n\u003cbr\u003eVol. 5 Ronchamp 2, 1991, stapled softcover\n\u003cbr\u003e16 sheets, 12 x 8.3 inch \/ 31 x 21 cm\n\u003cbr\u003eHoused together in a cardboard box\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"search-metadata\"\u003eNotebooks 978-3-86930-253-9\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steidl Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53181848158536,"sku":"9783869302539","price":469.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0946\/0255\/9816\/files\/9783869302539.jpg?v=1779811361","url":"https:\/\/www.hochparterre-buecher.ch\/en\/products\/notebooks","provider":"Hochparterre Bücher","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
