An exhibition of Santiago Calatrava sculptures (and drawings) opened yesterday at the Marlborough Gallery.
As a scholar and maker of geometry I was intrigued in understanding the process behind the making of fairly similar sculptures. The recurrent helicoidal shapes seem to be generated by repetition and scaling of an initial module/parameter; several cycles and types of metals also created diversity in the sculptural artwork.
