Description: An untitled, abstract bas relief by Constantino Nivola, 1960. The sculpture consists of eleven concrete panels, total dimensions 106 x 266 inches. The work was probably commissioned with funds from the Wohl family as a wall decoration for the lobby of the Wohl Clinics Building. It was moved when the Wohl Clinics Building was renovated to accommodate an expansion of the Barnes Hospital emergency room, circa 1964, and presently forms most of the north wall of the Renard Hospital lobby.
