RIYADH: A new public artwork has been installed on the pedestrian bridge at the intersection of the King Abdulaziz and Hisham bin Abdul Malik roads in the capital, Riyadh Art announced on Wednesday.
Italian artist Angelo Bonello’s work, Run Beyond, is a light-based sculpture depicting a running figure suspended mid-leap.
Through illuminated silhouettes animated by controlled LED lighting, the artwork evokes a continuous sense of motion and rhythm.
The installation marks a new chapter for Run Beyond, which was previously presented as part of Noor Riyadh 2021, Riyadh Art’s annual light and art festival, in an earlier iteration.
Following its presentation at the festival, a new rendering of the work, created in 2022 as Edition 1, Series 2, was acquired for the Riyadh Art Permanent Collection.
