Art Square and Neighborhood
KONDO Tetsuo
Sitting alongside a shopping street are 22 pieces of rounded white street furniture. These are both benches to rest on, and vases or flowerbeds tended by the shopkeepers, and reflect Kondo’s hope that the street will bustle with people not only enjoy ing their shopping, but also each other’s company.
