Paths and Edges #12 Framed Etching by Richard Serra

Paths and Edges #12 Framed Etching by Richard Serra

Richard Serra (American, 1938–2024)
Paths and Edges #12, 2007

One-color etching on paper, signed and numbered 6/60 in pencil on the verso.

A powerful example of Serra’s printmaking practice, this work explores the tension between mass, movement, and spatial perception through a bold, abstract composition. Its layered, gestural forms reflect the artist’s enduring interest in physical presence, material weight, and the relationship between positive and negative space.
