American artist Richard Serra, known for his enormous steel sculptures, has died at the age of 85. Serra, born in San Francisco in 1938, grew up visiting marine shipyards and worked in steel mills in his youth. He was considered a minimalist artist, focusing on the dimensions of his art relative to the viewer. Serra gained recognition in 1969 when he was included in an exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. His work was especially appreciated in Spain, where he had a retrospective at the Reina Sofia museum and an exhibit at the Guggenheim museum in Bilbao. Serra's death was attributed to pneumonia.
