From a young age, we loved to adventure through all sorts of games, climb trees, play hide-and-seek, build obstacle courses, and the list goes on. Among the most interesting and challenging "games" are labyrinths, and Robert Morris loved this concept so much that he created one out of glass.
The artist installed in the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art park in Kansas City a triangular structure made of glass walls, in the form of a labyrinth.
Robert Morris drew inspiration from a variety of myths, symbols, and metaphors, which he combined with modern materials, from concepts and ideas such as: commitment, theatrical spirit, participation, transcending the boundaries between an art object and personal experience with it, creating a massive glass construction that took the form of a labyrinth.
The labyrinth was built on a stone frame and was made of 2-meter high glass, weighing more than 400 tons. The glass thickness is 2.5 centimeters and it took 80 workers to complete the project.
This dynamic sculpture offers visitors the chance to experience something unique where they will be able to interact with art while walking through a glass labyrinth.
