Rhomboid Rumba was a big hit last week. I loved curating it. So when images continued to arrive, I was tempted to extend the idea into a second post. Then as I was out and about, I photographed a few more. You know what that means: mas, mas y mas. So . . . this post is a Diamond Deux, a Parallelogram P.S. And it just so happens that many of these works are in shows that are up now.
At the Met, Richard Serra Drawing: A Retrospective, through August 28: Richard Serra, Untitled, 1973, paintstick and charcoal on paper, 50 x 38 inches

(I love how that sextet of attenuated and sharply delineated parallelograms slices through the orange ground and then merges abruptly into the quieter rhythm of the softer stripes)
