More steelwork

More steel sculptures of car parts today ...

John Chamberlain is currently showing his renowned steel sculptures of old car parts concurrently at Pinakothek der Moderne and Museum Brandhorst.  I found myself merrily lost for hours in a maze of oversized steelwork.

Chamberlain's steelwork is perfectly echoed by Sigmar Polke and Willem de Kooning's expressionist paintings.
