City art installation on the sea front in Thessaloniki, Greece.
FROM WIKIPEDIA.
In 1988 Zongolopoulos introduced to the audience his signature artwork Umbrellas, a theme repeated the following years. Moreover, in 1993 he presented a solo exhibition during that year's Venice Biennale where his most remarkable exhibit was a hydrokinetic version of his Umbrellas series while two years later he was praised for another Umbrellas version consisting of static group of floating umbrellas based on diagonal axes. Furthermore, the sculpture was placed at the exhibition's entrance thus gaining recognition and publicity. The same year Zongolopoulos won the first place at the competition held for the installation of European artworks at the Council of the European Union's building in Brussels and thus his hydrokenetic work Umbrellas was placed at building's Cour d'honneur.
Sculptures of Zongolopoulos Umbrellas are also placed in Thessaloniki (in Thessaloniki's new seaside and outside Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art and Palaio Psychiko.

Bombay Beach has to be one of the coolest and weirdest towns in all of California. Located along the Salton Sea in Imperial County, it is a mecca for artists and their outdoor art installations.
Head down to the beach and you’ll see a swingset out in the water. This is “The Water Ain't That Bad, It's Just Salty," by Chris “Ssippi” Wessman and Damon James Duke. I shot this at around sunset and while the light was great, it was devoid of any clouds. As a result, I composited in the clouds adding depth and texture to the landscape. I don’t take photographs…I make them!

Forever Bicycles is a monumental installation composed of over a thousand stainless steel bicycles. Like Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel, Ai uses the familiar object as a ready-made. For Ai, who spent his childhood in exile with his father in the Gobi Desert, the bicycle represented personal freedom. Back then, to have a bicycle was a luxury. When he taught architecture, Ai used the bicycle to teach his students how they could build with materials beyond simply bricks and concrete. The name of the work comes from the “Forever” brand of bicycles, produced since the 1940s. The bicycles were ubiquitous on Chinese roads before cars and other motor vehicles became widely accessible.Forever Bicycles has been installed in exhibitions all over the world, from Melbourne to Toronto to London. Each installation is unique. This installation was in Toronto for Nuit Blanche, an annual art festival in 2014.
Julie C. FORTIER - Le jour où les fleurs ont gelé, 2020
Installation olfactive, 7 capsules de verre et porcelaine poreuse, structure acier peint. Pièce unique.
L'oeuvre pour La Seine Musicale : le jour où les fleurs ont gelé est un bouquet de sept crosses de fougères métalliques qui se déroulent pour révéler de précieuses capsules parfumées en verre et porcelaine poreuse. Certaines molécules utilisées pour la composition des parfums se présentent sous la forme de cristaux. Il s’agit de composer des accords simples de trois ou quatre molécules et de les faire cristalliser à la surface du verre comme le givre sur une fenêtre en hiver. La porcelaine étant poreuse, laisse filtrer doucement les parfums. À l’inverse de la fugacité habituelle du parfum, les capsules tentent de dompter cette volatilité et de la faire durer le plus longtemps possible.

Netherlands, Wijk aan Zee, Dunes, Een zee van staal, White rhythm (Robert S Erskine) (uncut)
In 1999 Wijk aan Zee was a 'Cultural village of Europe'.
For the occasion eleven sculptors from eleven European countries were commissioned to transform the top of a dune into a sculpture park, with the theme 'A Sea of Steel'. Of course, the art installation had to be made of steel. Material and workspace were made available by the steel plant Hoogovens, now Tata Steel.
The organization wrote the following about the sculpture.
"On top of a dune top, the white statue of the Englishman Robert S. Erskine attracts all the attention. It seems like it can get moving at any moment. Is it fluttering laundry or a monstrously large caterpillar? Erskine calls it differently: it is a 'City Piece', a 'cityscape'. With a nod to the theme 'Cultural village of Europe'. Erskine did not take the buildings of a city as a starting point, but the hustle and bustle, the dynamics and the speed that city life is peculiar. He found this combination of crowds and movement mainly on zebra crossings in large cities. He saw people rushing over, their raincoat (he remains an Englishman) fluttering around them. This image, this rhythm of fluttering coats, he has expressed in steel. An earlier version, on a small size in bronze, served as an example. For this steel sculpture, he cut dozens of diamond shapes out of the plate and had them rolled into a curl. Plate by plate he welded them together in a nice rhythm of hollow-ball, high-low. The middle part consists of two series next to each other; a translation of left and right on the zebra crossing. That can be seen from the bottom. At the head and butt both rows come together and the plates interttify into a whole. The kink in the body increases the mobility. The blades give direction. They also serve as reinforcement. The statue stands with stiff steel legs on a huge pedestal in the shape of a capsized ship. Is the cityscape still anchored to the coast?"
