So, I choosed the sculpture of Lee Bontecou which at a first glance made a great impact on my brain. It was very huge and ws so scary. It has a dimension of "184.5x167.6x64.6 cm." It was placed in the Whitney Museum of American Art, NewYork but right now it's in the Museum of Mordern Arts at Queens.
