A New Hiroshi Sugimoto Sculpture in San Francisco Reaches for Infinity
June 9, 2023

Renowned Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto has installed a stainless steel sculpture on Yerba Buena Island, San Francisco. Standing at 69-feet tall, the sculpture, titled “Point of Infinity,” is intended to mark the new cultural destination of the island. Funded by a “one percent” program created to take a cut of construction costs from new development on the islands, the sculpture is the first major artwork developed under the Treasure Island Art Program. Thanks to its curved geometry, which tapers from a concrete base of 23 feet to less than one inch in diameter at the top, “Point of Infinity” creates an infinite visual effect of growing taller as it reaches for Earth’s outer atmosphere. The sculpture also serves as a sundial with a granite marker aligned with the artwork’s shadow at solar noon on days of the spring and fall equinox. “Point of Infinity” is one of many projects being developed under a $50 million budget art program.
