This foyer is outside the largest
conference hall in the house, which accommodates the European
Committee in the south-east rotunda. Its special constitutional
position is reflected in the fact that it is the only committee not
to meet in one of the eight smaller rotundas. The "Seats of Power"
installation is the creation of UK artist Angela Bulloch. When
someone sits down on one of the coloured benches, a light of the
same colour is illuminated in the entrance hall below.
