> Organised in collaboration with the Stepney Trade Union Council in

> Commissioned by Nelson Rockefeller in 1955 it was created, in

> of the great Dürrbach Atelier in Paris. In 1985, Mrs Nelson

> New York in memory of her husband who was present at the founding of
> the organisation, to offer a deterrent to war. It has hung ever since
> outside the United Nations Security Council.

> Macuga’s project draws connections across historic and contemporary
