Event Horizon is the name of a large-scale public sculpture installation by the British artist Antony Gormley. First displayed in London in 2007, they were later displayed in New York, downtown São Paulo[1] and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[2] Gormley describes his statues as "...showing solitary figures installed in groups yet retaining their sense of solitude and reflection."[3]
