🖼️ Did you know? Before it was installed at the entrance of Carnegie Museum of Art for the 1985 Carnegie International, the late Richard Serra’s towering 40-foot steel sculpture Carnegie was set up in a trial erection at Pittsburgh-Des Moines Corporation on Neville Island. The practice session took several days but proved worthwhile, as the final installation at the museum went much smoother, taking less than four hours.
