The Curve by Jeppe Hein
There is nothing like contemporary art. Danish artist Jeppe Hein takes the grand space in The Curve in the Barbican to create Distance, a unique and memorable interactive piece. As you walk into the gallery a large white ball is released onto the roller coaster-like steel structure that fills the room. Watch the balls go along the track, through spins, loops and corkscrews. As more visitors enter, more balls are released and the excitement grows. This is the kind of playful, innovative art that a description cannot give justice. You have to see it for yourself.
