Richard Serra — Level II
Richard Serra

Level II

Richard Serra's *Level II* is a commanding etching printed on Kozo Misumi paper, showcasing the artist's mastery of bold, gestural mark-making through dense, intensely worked layers of black ink. The work reflects Serra's signature exploration of weight, mass, and spatial tension, translating his monumental sculptural sensibility into the intimate medium of printmaking. The organic texture of the full Kozo Misumi sheet enhances the raw, visceral quality of the composition, lending the work a tactile depth that resonates with Serra's broader investigation of materiality and form.
