The Boxers, Steel sculpture at Potsdamer Platz, Germany.

The two opposing figures of The Boxers stand 4.93 meters tall, constructed from steel, lacquer, concrete, and stone in a dynamic fighting stance.

Keith Haring installed this sculpture in 1987, marking one of his earliest three-dimensional works in Germany during the period of divided Berlin.

The sculpture represents the intersection of street art and formal public installations, reflecting Haring's transition from underground artist to international recognition.

Visitors can reach the sculpture by taking the S-Bahn or U-Bahn to Potsdamer Platz station and walking toward the Mercedes-Benz complex.

The fighters display cut-out sections in their heads and stomachs, creating visual holes that allow viewers to see through the metallic structure.
