See Brooklyn Bridge Park’s 50-foot-high slinky from Antony Gormley
"This is like a tumbleweed that's just coming on the wind."
British sculptor Antony Gormley unveiled “New York Clearing,” his latest work and first public sculpture in New York City in 10 years at Brooklyn Bridge Park on Tuesday.
The artwork, on view through March 27, features a single line made up of 11 miles of square aluminum tubing that loops, bends and coils endlessly into the sky like a giant slinky.
His “drawing in space” rises nearly 50 feet high and creates an environment that encourages viewers to meet inside the work and interact with it.
