Anish Kapoor at Brooklyn Bridge Park


"Descension is the result of intensive research into material and process, exploring the potential of water to behave in surprising ways. The continuous swirling motion of this 26-foot-diameter liquid mass converges in a central vortex, as if rushing water is being sucked into the earth’s depths. We thus experience Kapoor’s abstract form on multiple levels. Its powerful physicality has a visceral and mesmerizing impact. Yet Descension also stimulates the imagination and suggests a social, cultural, and even mythic dimension". 

Descension's operating hours are 9:00am - 9:00pm
This exhibition is curated by Public Art Fund Director and Chief Curator Nicholas Baume.
