This is the last show conceived by Richard Serra during his lifetime. His team had seen the space, and Richard Serra also had a maquette of the London gallery. Even with Zwirner and Serra settling the details of the latest exhibition prior to the artist's death, later decisions about his work and legacy will be made based on a breadth of moral, legal and financial considerations.
Serra's lawyer John Silberman confirmed that 'no changes are planned from how Mr Serra's works were managed prior to his death.' The stewardship of an artist's legacy, however firmed up it may be in advance, still comes with a complex and growing set of responsibilities.
