The Upside-Down Dome found in Belgium’s St. Michael Church is certainly not the typical form of artwork that would be found in such a sacred location. This modern piece of artwork comprised of hanging steel chains was made to symbolize the missing dome that was to be part of this Baroque infrastructure.
Designed by architects Pieterjan Gijs and Arnout Van Vaerenbergh, the Upside-Down Dome will be on display from September 4, 2010 to October 31, 2010. Check out the gallery for more photos.
