Anish Kapoor in Grand Palais in Paris.
11 May 2011
 From May 11 until June 29 2011, the Britisch-Indian artist exhibits in the Grand Palais in Paris. Kapoor is one of the most succesfull artists of this time. With his monumental works, he touches every viewer. During the early summer, he conquers Paris. He constructed a gigantic Leviathan, a mythical monster in which the visitor disappears. The work is more than 115 feet high and is made from tree big darkred PVC-structures. "You feel as a baby in the whom or Jonah in the belly of a whale." |
The work is contributed to Ai Wei Wei, the Chinese artist who is held prisoner for more than 6 weeks because of political reasons. more info: see the website of Grand Palais photo: Anish Kapoor, Dismemberment Site 1, 2003-2009 |
