David Smith made the Cubi XXIII in 1964. This was different than his other pieces from his cubi series. Most of his pieces were actual cubes or looked somewhat like cubes. This piece consists of two triangles and one cylinder. So it is odd that it is part of his cubi series. He made this structure with stainless steel and welded these pieces together. He really did focus his artwork in this piece on the negative space. There are several shapes in the negative space between the structures showing rectangles and more triangles. This piece is now in Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
