The Fun Is In The Search Itself... The Jouney Continues...
Event Horizon is the name of a large-scale public sculpture installation by the English artist Antony Gormley.
Originally mounted in London in 2007, the project consists of 31 life-size anatomically correct male bodies, 27 constructed of fiberglass and four of cast iron,[3] all cast from the body of the artist himself.
In 2010, the Event Horizon sculptures were installed in New York City at sites around Madison Square, as far downtown as Union Square and as far uptown as the Empire State Building. The 27 fiberglass figures were placed on setbacks and tops of buildings, while the four cast iron figures were on the ground in Madison Square Park. The installation was sponsored by the Madison Square Park Conservancy.
Both in New York and in London, the figures were mistaken as suicide attempts.
Gormley describes his statues as "...showing solitary figures installed in groups yet retaining their sense of solitude and reflection."
The photographs in this gallery were all captured while I was strolling in Madison Square Park. ~Di
