Architecture

The Chicago skyline is reflected in British artist Anish Kapoor's "Cloud Gate" sculpture in Chicago's Millennium Park Monday April 10 2006. The 110-ton sculpture is forged of a seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates. A 12-foot-high arch provides a gate beneath the sculpture, where visitors can  see their reflection in several perspectives. Inspired by liquid mercury, the sculpture is among the largest of its kind in the world, measuring 66-feet long by 33-feet high.
