ArcelorMittal Orbit - 18 November 2018

Conceived as 'something extra' for the Olympic Park for the 2012 London Olympics, the ArcelorMittal Orbit was designed by Anish Kapoor and Cecil Balmond. Like the nearby Aquatic Centre, it closed after the Olympics and re-opened in April 2014. It is Britain's largest piece of public art.

In this view, it is seen, significantly, across another major piece of public art, the installation Shrouds of the Somme [qv] by Rob Heard. The display was open from 8-18 November 2018.
