Carsten Höller's helter-skelter (Isomeric) slides come back to London - at South Bank's Hayward Gallery. The modern artist is probably most famous in London for his installation at the Tate Modern, in which children and grown ups alike could slide down a 56-metre long helter-skelter back in 2007 – this time they run from the gallery's glass pyramid ceiling to the entrance several floors below. They are part of Decision, the interactive exhibition which will run from June 10 to September 6 and will include - two robotic beds that will mirror each other's movements as they roam the gallery; and an installation called Flying Machines, which will be installed in the gallery's outdoor terrace opposite Waterloo Bridge, giving visitors “the sensation of soaring above city traffic”.
