The city requires that 1% of the cost of the development of underground parking needs to be spent on public art. I went to a few of them and this one in front of the Theatre of Lyon is one of the more interesting ones.
The structure in the middle of the square looks like a telescope that is aiming directly to the facade of the theatre. But when you look into it, you see this spinning mirror reflection of arched openings on multiple levels.
The truth is that as opposed to looking straight ahead, you are looking into the parking space underneath of the square.
Although this installation is mainly a tourist attraction than for the locals, I find the fact that it's some what hidden that makes it interesting. There is also something about inside/outside space in it.
Hi guys, sorry about the late posting. I haven't had internet for a while and even now the internet connection isn't the fastest. I will upload some videos once I get a decent connection.
