Anish Kapoor Exhibition

The History of Sculpture is the History of Materials.

These are two of the very interesting Anish Kapoor's works presented in the Boston ICA, which is by the way the building designed by Diller+Scofidio. Kapoor is constantly dealing with issues of corporeality, our perception of space and our illusions of stability and change. Through his installations you can explore the three-dimensionality of space and go beyond the familiar in the abstract darkness of our universe. This was the first time I had the chance to elaborate on his work. Kapoor's concept is a constant reevaluation of architectural space as we know it, moreover his work with new emerging materials shows there is also an alternative or at least side way of elaborating on technology. Aesthetics is crucial part of the architecture project. Materials can perform in an optimal way as building components and at the same time produce a wide range of aesthetic effects, rarely utilized so far in our buildings.
