Two Graces at the Pier Head
Looking towards the Cunard Building on the left, and the Port of Liverpool Building beyond. The third 'Grace', the Liver Building, is out of sight on the left. The buildings are lit up by the low evening sun as the crowds wait for the son et lumiere show which will be projected onto the Liver Building.
'Reflections on the Waterfront' - Created by The Macula
The Macula are a Czech based group of artists who create son et lumiere light shows projected onto buildings Link
On the evenings of Friday 22nd, Saturday 23rd, and Sunday 24th of July 2011 the group presented a spectacular show at the Pier Head entitled 'Reflections on the Waterfront'. Primarily the show was to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the construction of the Liver Building, and it was the first time the group had worked in the UK. The show finished with a more modern interpretation projected on to the ultra-modern Museum of Liverpool.
On the Sunday evening the light show was preceded by a concert by 6ix Toys.
