Tomás Saraceno On the Roof: "Cloud City" Viewed From Central Park

Cloud City by Tomás Saraceno (born in Tucumán, Argentina in 1973) is the new art installation at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Roof Garden. It is a "constellation of large, interconnected modules constructed with transparent and reflective materials". Most of the published images of the artwork including this photoblog's earlier post  are taken from the rooftop of the Met. The photos above were taken from Central Park grounds.
