Anthony Gormley on the Southbank
London, UK - kathy archbold - Sunday, May 27th, 2007 : goo

These Anthony Gormley figures have been appearing on rooftops all over the Southbank, to coincide with the exhibition at the Hayward gallery. Apparently. some people have been calling emergency services to report suspected suicide attempts.
To me, they look more like sentries looking mournfully out across the Thames.

Luckily you don't have to like a person to like their work - or I'd have to probably dump half my music collection! Although I have mixed feelings about Mr Gormley myself, I think these figures work really well in this landscape.

its a great show, the figures have a real presence. I'd recommend a visit - 'Space Station' is quite different to these figures but is equally impressive

111 Year Old Erection and Other Frozen Images from a Sunday Afternoon
(close up of a cannon, using my canon)
Kitchener called Berlin until 1916.
Ah yes, it is I, the elusive Zagg. Back from a weekend trip to Kitchener, Ontario. Took these snapshots while walking around in Victoria Park. Oh how...
