An influential figure in American and European art since 1960, Suvero is known for his monumentally scaled sculptures, constructed primarily from industrial I-beams. This piece is a gift of Vera List, the family of Robert Sanders, MIT '64, and is made possible through the generosity of the artist. Photo / Donna Coveney
