This week, a man fell into an Anish Kapoor artwork and Dezeen Awards shortlists were revealed
This week on Dezeen, a man was hospitalised after falling into an art installation by Anish Kapoor, Adidas unveiled a concept trainer that mimics the feeling of running on sand, and the Dezeen Awards shortlists were unveiled.
A visitor to the Serralves museum in Porto, Portugal, was injured after falling into British Artist Anish Kapoor's 1992 piece, Descent into Limbo. The piece features a 2.5-metre hole in the floor, painted black to give the impression of an infinite drop down.
A spokesperson from the museum later told Dezeen that the visitor "has already left the hospital and he is recovering well".
