OMA debuts towering installations for Louis Vuittons flagship in Midtown Manhattan
Is it a Brncui? A towering folly by Hans No? No, it is the four new vertical installations inside Louis Vuittons 57th Street flagship by OMA principal Shohei Shigematsu, and project leader Jesse Catalano.From afar, the new sculptures by OMA recall Endless Column, a 98-foot-tall artwork by Constantin Brncui in Trgu Jiu, Romania, completed in 1938. But upon closer inspection, visitors will realize that OMAs design is made up of (structurally reinforced) luggage trunks, not cast-iron modules.
