Santiago Calatrava brings his signature style to Park Avenue with seven sculptures

Santiago Calatrava brings his signature style to Park Avenue with seven sculptures

Santiago Calatrava, currently the darling of George Clooney, has set up seven blade-like sculptures along Park Avenue in New York City. The installation is a collaboration between the Marlborough Gallery, the New York City Parks Department, and the Fund for Park Avenue.

The aluminum sculptures each have an expressive form that is classic Calatrava, but are not the all-white creations that we have come to expect from the architect. No, these pieces are painted red, black, and silver. The installation runs until mid-November meaning that it should close right around the time that Calatrava’s long-delayed World Trade Center Transportation Hub finally opens.

Take a look at the gallery below for a closer look at the sculptures, and if you’re in New York and want to see for yourself, the pieces are on Park Avenue’s median between 52nd and 55th streets.
