The late Zaha Hadid initially created her 2007 Lilas sculpture as an homage to the 30th anniversary of the Serpentine Gallery in London, England. The sweeping pavilion which resembles flower petals and leaves will be the focal point for this year’s Beyond Limits exhibition—an annual selling event hosted by Sotheby’s that is known for showcasing modern and contemporary outdoor structures.
