美国艺术家dan graham在纽约大都会博物馆创造了一个屋顶花园，并在这个特殊地点设置了特殊装置，花园布满了藤灌木，在这些藤灌木之间，双向镜面玻璃形成起伏的曲线，该装置长54英尺（约合16.5米），最高处为28英尺（约合8.5米），高度不一，是由相互连接的多个模块构成的一个巨大模型，由反射性材料、镜子和玻璃组成，它的背景是纽约天际线和中央公园。设计利用透明和反光作用，启发人们思考城市和街道的每一天，在屋顶，人们会发现城市美丽的另一面。

这个装置鼓励人们思考现实的多样性、事物之间的重叠和多次反射联系对我们的认知产生的影响及带来的挑战，它是我们想象中的运载工具，时刻准备载着我们超越社会、政治以及地理观念。

american artist dan graham has installed a site-specific work atop the metropolitan museum of art’s iris and b. gerald cantor roof garden. situated between ivy shrubs, ‘hedge two-way mirror walkabout’ comprises undulating steel curves and two-way mirrored glass. the structure sits within a specially conceived terrain, designed in collaboration with the swiss landscape architect günther vogt. both transparent and reflective, the work ‘challenges viewers to think in new and thought-provoking ways about the streets and cities they traverse every day‘ thomas p. campbell, director and CEO of the MET describes. ‘in his reimagining of the MET’s roof, visitors will discover a picturesque landscape that is at once unexpected and familiar.’

the installation references old and new, intermingling the aesthetics of formal 18th-century northern european gardens with the sleek corporate skyscrapers of new york city. using glass — one of graham’s signature materials — he complements the expanse of central park that extends through the urban landscape below, and mirrors the tall buildings of midtown manhattan, forging a historic and complex relationship with both the viewer and its surroundings. the roof garden commission: dan graham with günther vogt will be on view from through november 2, 2014.
