With an infectious sense of fun, this towering pair surges and [unreadable] depending on our points of view. To some, they appear as [unreadable] layers, stacked precariously in a wondrous balancing act. To others, they suggest side profiles of human noses, chins and foreheads, whipped by the wind and speed of the city.

Celebrated as one of the world's foremost sculptors, Tony Cragg is recipient of accolades that include the Turner Prize, the Praemium Imperiale of Japan and Best Sculpture Prize in the Beijing Biennale 2005. A sculpture park dedicated to his works has been established in [unreadable], Germany.
