This sculpture stands outside the National Museum of American History and I really dig how it looks completely different from anywhere you stand. It's called 'Infinity' and was created in 1967 by José de Rivera.
And can you believe that there's a Wikipedia article on Jose ben Yochanan, Jose the Galilean, Jose ben Halafta, Jose ben Joezer of Zeredah, Jose ben Abin, Jose ben Saul, and Jose ben Akabya, but NOT José de Rivera? What's this world coming to?

Well, he deserves one, cuz it's a cool sculpture. I have to get back there and see the new American History Museum!! If Shopper's doesn't summon me soon, I'm just going to venture east on my own!

Write one! That is what Wikipedia is all about.

@Brian: Anytime!
@Debra: I KNOW! But the glaring problem here is I don't really know anything about him. I thought about creating a stub that says something like "Cool sculptor who was mentioned in my blog." But I didn't think that would go over so well. But then again, it is Wikipedia. Who's gonna stop me?
