Fast 20 points answer it right tho i also need 2 answers so dont be afraid to just i needa get a good grade on this! also will give brainliest answer and i need at least a paragraph! read the story of the koenig’s sphere memorial.
originally constructed in the early 1970s by sculptor fritz koenig, this bronze sphere sat outside the original world trade center in new york city as a symbol of peace through world trade. when two planes toppled the twin towers of the world trade center in september 2001, the sphere was badly dented and damaged. six months after the attack on the world trade center, the sculpture was re-erected in battery park, several blocks from its original location. perhaps surprisingly, no attempts were made to repair the shiny sculpture. instead, an eternal flame was installed at its base, memorializing the nearly 3,000 victims of the september bombing.
what is the message of the monument?
why was a particular location chosen for its display? discuss both the original and present-day locations.
do you agree with the chosen location for display? do you feel that it is the best way to communicate the message of the piece? given the tragedy that occurred at the location, is it appropriate to locate the memorial here? why or why not? suggest another location for the piece and explain your choice.
do you think it was the right decision not to repair the damage to the sculpture? why or why not?
