Aurora

"Aurora", created by Mark di Suvero between 1992 and 1993. A marvel of design and engineering, its sophisticated structural system distributes eight tons of steel over three diagonal supports to combine massive scale with elegance of proportion. The sculpture's title comes from a poem about New York City by Federico Garcia Lorca.
