Anish Kapoor Exhibition

Anish Kapoor, born 1954 in Bombay to Indian-Iraqi parents, lives and works in London. His speciality are large, highly polished pastic shapes. Barbara knew of him and took me to this exhibition. The surprise was complete. The objects were not only pleasing, but from a topological point of view most intriguing.
