Double Ascension is a public art installation by Herbert Bayer consisting of an abstract sculpture and fountain. Measuring 14.5-by-33-foot (4.4 by 10.1 m) long, with individual steps measuring 35 in (89 cm) by 11 ft (3.4 m) by 9 in (23 cm), the sculpture is fabricated in painted steel and mounted within a 60-foot (18 m) diameter pool.[3][verification needed] It is located in City National Plaza at 515 South Flower Street, Bunker Hill, Los Angeles, California, United States.
History
The sculpture was dedicated on January 20, 1973.[4] Bayer was commissioned by ARCO, and he based his design on his earlier works Articulated Wall, Double Twist, and Stairs to Nowhere.[5] An unverified claim is that Bayer's original title for the sculpture was Stairway to Nowhere, which he changed at the request of company officials.
