United States Mission to the United Nations
In 2011, the Foundation for Art and Preservation in Embassies (FAPE) launched one of its most expansive and comprehensive installations of sculpture, located in the United States Mission to the United Nations. FAPE began in 1986 with an art and restoration project in Beijing. It has continued to collect and present prints and paintings at embassies throughout the world, recently adding sculpture as a new component to its programming. The permanent installation housed within the U.S. mission was curated by Robert Storr (chairman of FAPE’s Professional Fine Arts Committee) and features work by 50 artists on the 19 floors…see the entire review in the print version of September’s Sculpture magazine.
