The only work of art in or around the World Trade Center that miraculously survived the terror attack of September 11, 2001, is the monumental fountain sculpture “Kugelkaryatide” created and built by the Bavarian sculptor Fritz Koenig. Although “The Sphere” survived, it is not undamaged. It carries heavy scars that makes it an eloquent witness of the disaster. As the center piece of a memorial for the victims of the attack, it will be a witness of the terrible day for generations to come.
