Unlike this statue, the MoMA doesn't even let people touch these sculptures.

I didn't think much of these sculptures at first, but as I walked around, between and through them I felt very small and vulnerable... like they could tip over and come crashing down. The light reflecting off the rusty, textured surface presents wonderful dull spots and shadows. The curved edges catch the light in thin bright reflective lines. (Did I touch?)

Your photo is a nice welcoming to the sculpture... or perhaps "welcome in".
