Anish Kapoor creates work that reflects a world that is larger than life. His work is always grand—huge works that give me an intense feeling of curiosity that I only felt when I was really young.
The photos are from his show at MONUMENTA, a show organized by the French Ministry of Culture and Communication. Each year MONUMENTA invites a contemporary artist to appropriate the 13,500 m² of the Grand Palais Nave with artwork specifically created for the event.
Kapoor, who’s a Bombay-born British sculptor, is probably best known for “Cloud Gate” (the silver bean) at Millennium Park in Chicago.
I first saw his work at Miami Art Basel ‘09 and even at a much smaller scale his work gives me the same feelings.
