Bloch Building Shows Glimpses of Personality

Bloch-with-clouds-June-06.jpg

This image doesn’t come close to expressing the subtle changes in the building’s appearance that occur from day to day and even moment to moment. The light and clouds of a recent summer evening gave the glass a warm hue to create a peaceful scene. The water from Walter De Maria’s One Sun / 34 Moons is tranquil and still as it responded with a perfect reflection.

If you look closely enough, you can see George Segal’s Rush Hour in its new location at the juncture of the Bloch Building and the Nelson-Atkins Building. On this night, it seems the figures weren’t in too much of a “rush” to escape this picturesque moment.
