El Anatsui- ‘Broken Bridge II’ – ‘Exclusive’ – Art21

El Anatsui discusses his large-scale sculpture Broken Bridge II, 2012 and the importance of its location on an east-facing wall above the High Line, a relatively new park located on once-abandoned, elevated railroad tracks on Manhattan’s west side. Mirrors, a new element for the artist, are a part of Broken Bridge II. This enables Anatsui to reflect and point out characteristics of New York that he considers iconic.

On view through September, 2013.
