Fifth Avenue and 23rd Street

Life-sized casts of artist Antony Gormley’s body are currently appearing in an installation around Madison Square Park. Some casts are planted at street level, but the most interesting ones are those scattered on rooftops. “I just hope that people will be stopped in their tracks and look again at where they are and maybe themselves and maybe at the world around them,” said Gormley in this piece in the Times (UK).
