Joie de Vivre, Public sculpture at Zuccotti Park, Lower Manhattan, US
The red steel structure rises 70 feet high at the intersection of Broadway and Cedar Street, featuring three intersecting beam elements.
Mark di Suvero created this installation in 2006 as part of the reconstruction efforts following the September 11, 2001 events.
The geometric design represents mathematical precision while incorporating movement through its balanced angular components and open framework.
Visitors can view the sculpture from multiple angles by walking around Zuccotti Park, which remains open 24 hours every day.
The sculpture earned recognition during the 2011 Occupy Wall Street movement when protesters gathered beneath its steel beams.
