The first permanent UK public commission of French artist Daniel Buren has officially been inaugurated today in Tottenham Court Road tube station. Titled Diamonds and Circles, works in situ, the work takes over the renovated station with his well-known op-art style geometric shapes and striped patterns. His work joins the station’s famous Eduardo Paolozzi’s mosaics created in the 1980s, which was the subject of controversy when 5% of the historic works had to be removed as part of the renovation.
