“Cloud Column” by Anish Kapoor. Info taken from https://www.mfah.org
Kapoor - Cloud Column
Anish Kapoor’s Cloud Column, standing 30 feet high and weighing 21,000-pounds, welcomes visitors from the Cullen Sculpture Garden into The Brown Foundation, Inc. Plaza.
Conceived in the late 1990s and realized in 2006, Cloud Column is a singular work within a decades-long engagement with what the artist has called “defining space.” The oblong form’s concave “front” faces the Glassell School of Art, inverting the structure, its surroundings and the viewer in its reflection. Unlike nearly all of Kapoor’s related sculptures, Cloud Column’s stainless-steel surface has been hand-worked, evoking the human touch.
