The artist considers the cultural obsession with the growth of our lawns to be symbolic of the taming(...)

Seagram Plaza

Description:
The plaza at the Seagram Building in New York, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and completed in 1958, was a litmus test of what an open space in the city could be. Raised three steps above the sidewalk along Park Avenue, the plaza is an oasis of calm, distant from the commotion and turbulence of the street.
