Agora consists of 106 headless figures, posed as if walking in multiple directions or standing still, frozen in time. In ancient Greece, the agora was the central meeting place in a village or city. Similarly, Magdalena Abakanowicz’s figures invite viewers to gather and become part of the artwork. Abakanowicz donated the artwork’s design and worked with a group of Polish artists who volunteered to construct the pices in Poznan, Poland.
