Finalist

Absolute Towers
Mississauga, Canada

The Absolute Towers in Mississauga near Toronto, also called the “Marilyn Monroe Towers” by locals because of their curves, take up curved lines with their shape, as they can also be found in nature. From the jury's statement: “The calm yet striking double sculpture deserves great praise for the way it gives the city a new center and blends into the urban backdrop.”
