Thank goodness for having taken AP Art History in high school.
Here is one of six of Barnett Newman's Broken Obelisk monuments. This particular one is installed in the Red Square in University of Washington- Seattle campus. It's a pyramid and an obelisk, making an "X" intersection between the tips. It's sort of a juxtaposition; two of Egypt's main attractions united at the tip, yet an equilibrium is reached when the two meet.
