Each week, Fine Lookin' Piece offers an image of a work of art visually compelling enough on its own to inspire our readers to hit up the gallery for a closer look -- even with no prior knowledge of the artist or exhibition.

Find Jim Lambie's incredibly labor-intensive and site-specific floor sculpture/installation, Zobop, and other works in his eponymous exhibition through September 3 at Goss-Michael Foundation, 1405 Turtle Creek Blvd.
