Round 10: Tossup 17
A bright blue minimalist sculpture in this city consists of nine geometric rhomboid units and is titled She Who Must Be Obeyed. Eight yellowwood trees surround a sculpture in this city that Glenna Goodacre designed to complement a piece described as “a kind of ocean.” A memorial in this city features an “inscription wall” of 14 quotes from the subject, a man who is depicted as emerging from a “stone of hope” designed by Lei Yixin. This city is also home to a sculpture by Frederick Hart depicting three soldiers standing together. That sculpture was a reaction to a nearby work that consists of two black granite walls in the shape of a V. For 10 points, name this city that is home to Maya Lin’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial. ■END■
