Cool statue. Reminds of my the bean in Chicago.
surprenante cette sculpture, mais pour jouer a la pétanque, cela ne doit pas être facile ;o)
Surprisingly this sculpture, but to play petanque, it should not be easy ;o)

I like both of his sculptures, the polished stainless steel looks good.
An invitation to play petanque

Interesting statute. The image you have captured those reflcetions fabulous.

Love the spheres!
Sigh. A mayor of Manila (the city, not the metropolis) tried closing off a street to make it pedestrian-only. Of course, the next mayor turned it over. =(
The Malls Balls! Fantastic :)
You forgot the most important aspect of this sculpture. If you knock on the metal surface, it makes a really odd, cool, not quite echo sound. Kids have been fascinated by it for decades. I believe the bottom ball constantly needs to have the little dents panelbeaten out of it.
