Richard Serra is an American artist and sculptor that built this sculpture named "7". 7 is an 80 foot high sculpture that is located in the Museum of Islamic Art Park in Doha, Qatar. This sculpture is currently the tallest public art piece in Qatar and is also one of Serra's first sculptures shown in the Middle East. To build this sculpture, Serra had to design it based on the surroundings. I like how this manmade sculpture is in a shade of a heptagon. In addition, the piece of artwork represents the scientific and spiritual importance of the number 7 in the Islamic culture.
