Outdoor concrete block structures by conceptual pioneer Sol LeWitt inaugurate ICA Miami’s public sculpture program. The concrete structures are important examples of LeWitt’s approach to Minimalism and composition, and an expression of the artist’s engagement with urbanism and intervention with public space. Rising over twenty feet high, Tower (Frankfurt)(1990) greets visitors at the entry to the Miami Design District, ICA Miami’s neighborhood partner, from Miami Beach. With their modular units and construction, the structures engage issues of production central to modern urban society. This piece is part of two major works commissioned for this Miami location.
