Double Ascension is an abstract 14-1/2' high x 33' long public sculpture. The individual steps measure: 2'11" x 11' x 9". The sculpture is fabricated in painted steel public art sculpture by Herbert Bayer mounted within a 60-foot diameter pool.[1] It is located at City National Plaza at 515 South Flower Street, Bunker Hill, Los Angeles, California, United States.

History

The sculpture was dedicated on January 20, 1973.[2] Bayer was commissioned by ARCO, and he based his design on his earlier works "Articulated Wall", "Double Twist", and "Stairs to Nowhere."[3] An unverified claim is that Bayer's original title for the sculpture was Stairway to Nowhere, which he changed at the request of company officials.
