David Smith was an American abstract expressionist sculptor. He was mostly known for his sculptures that were made of geometric shapes. His most famous series was his Cubi Series which were all composed of 28 sculptures made of simple geometric shapes. This was his last series made before his death in 1965. This particular sculpture "Cubi XIX" was made in 1964. I chose this one because I like how the shapes look like they are just balanced on top of one another. The big structure is being held up by one single rectangle which looks off proportion.
