Tilted Arc

Synopsis

In 1981, minimalist sculptor Richard Serra installed a 120-foot-long wall of steel that cut New York's Federal Plaza in half. The artwork’s appearance and placement caused controversy, leading to a public hearing where Serra rallied fellow artists to his defense as bureaucrats waged war on minimalism.
