Public art is a wonderful way to help passersby engage with their environment.

Such is the case with a work of art by German sculptor and draftspersonKarl-Henning Seemann.

Part of the sculpture extends from the base of the stairs to halfway up them.

Seemann is known for his life-sized, dynamic sculptures.

It’s fitting, as Seemann’s incredibly animated sculptures feel like a sort of performance themselves.

They are as magnetic and stirring as they are solid and immobile.
