Installation Kapoor "the Drop" ("Descension") decorated the Park near the Brooklyn bridge in the festival of design NYCxDesign festival. The diameter of the tank is 8 meters, the perimeter fencing installed, allowing viewers to watch this endless whirlpool.

In a recent interview Anish Kapoor admitted that the work of "the Fall" is "obvious Association" with the current situation in American politics. "In new-Йорке now we're really talking about the fall! — says Kapoor. —, I beat the Fall in America, made a literal embodiment of this idea, harder to emphasize the current situation, although this is, in my opinion, there is no need".

First Anish Kapoor presented a similar vortex of the "fall" of the Kochi Biennale-Muziris in 2015 in India. But the installation was created inside the building. In the following year of 2016 for the big retrospective in Versailles Anish Kapoor made the vortex more and placed it on the street. And in past versions, the water was painted black, creating the illusion of a black hole. In new-Йорке the artist chose to leave the water transparent so the "Fall" echoed the East-Ривер. This is the first incarnation of the maelstrom Kapoor in America.
