'Square the Block' — by Richard Wilson
Pictured above and below, it's at the corner of Kingsway and Sardinia Street in London where it graces the northwest corner of the London School of Economics' New Academic Building.
Wrote Edwin Heathcote in a review in today's Financial Times, "What Wilson has done is to 'finish off' the architecture.... There is an intimation of disaster — an earthquake, a bomb, a moment of collapse captured."
Said Wilson to Heathcote, "There can be something beautiful... about destruction."
Continued Wilson, "I don't feel the building is exploding... but it's revealing itself, existing in these two states simultaneously."
Erwin, call the vet: your cat's ready to go home.
