Anish Kapoor: Turning the World Upside Down
Library Shelf Location 18.KAPO
Publication Date 2011
Description In the beautiful settings of Kensington Gardens, the major outdoor sculptures by acclaimed London-based artist Anish Kapoor are taken in scene. The sculptures are sited to contrast and reflect the changing colours, foliage and weather in Kensington Gardens. Despite their monumental scale, the works appear as pure reflection of their surroundings: the sky, trees, water, wildlife and changing seasons. The distortions in the works mirror-like surfaces call into question the viewers relationship to both the work itself and the surrounding environment. The catalogue is illustrated with stunning photographs of the works in situ. Furthermore, it is the first monograph to feature a comprehensive overview of all stainless steel sculptures within the artists oeuvre.
