Large-scale art encompasses monumental works that dominate their surroundings. These pieces often blur the lines between sculpture, installation, and architecture. Artists like Christo and Jeanne-Claude, known for wrapping entire buildings, and Anish Kapoor, creator of the iconic Cloud Gate in Chicago, push the boundaries of size and spectacle. Large-scale works challenge viewers’ perceptions and transform public spaces. From Richard Serra’s towering steel sculptures to Ai Weiwei’s installations filling museum halls, these artworks demand attention and interaction. They often address social or environmental issues, turning cityscapes and landscapes into thought-provoking canvases.
