”The famous Ring sculpture… is a common sight to most Lehigh students, although very few students know the origin of the piece. A general viewer consensus is that the rings have some kind of symbolic meaning that no one understands, and that they’ve seen people moving them around. For a community that does not seem to understand the significance of some art objects, this response from the Lehigh people is precisely what the artist intended.”
