This media file has been nominated for deletion since 21 July 2025.

To discuss it, please visit the nomination page.

Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed.

Reason for the nomination:

Nominating for deletion per discussion at Village Pump. I don't necessarily think these installations rise above ToO in the United States as they're simple expressions of geometric forms, but I don't begrudge if others believe they do. Images contain installation artworks by a living artist (Melvin Edwards), photographed in the U.S. (no freedom of panorama).

Photograph

Description	English: Picture of Melvin Edwards's barbed wire installation artwork Equal Memories (1970/2022) at Dia Beacon in Beacon, New York, in 2025. Dozens of differently sized lengths of simple barbed wire are stretched into a diamond shape across the corner of an industrial gallery space in a museum. The lengths of wire are shortest at the top and bottom of the diamond and set deep into the corner, while the longest lengths of wire in the center of the diamond project out into the gallery, giving the overall diamond shape physical depth in the space.
