George Segal

 I chose the "Holocaust Memorial" by George Segal because how powerful the message of the sculpture portrays. It almost made it seem like we are witnessing what was going on at the time. By the man standing at the fence with one hand on the barbwire, and all the others piled on the floor conveys almost a hopeless sensation, and that he has no where out. George Segals entered this sculpture made out of plaster from a competition he won in San Fransisco, where it remains today. However they transformed the plaster into bronze, painted over with white.
