No evidence of notability in the article, and a check for sources doesn't find any significant coverage. I would be fine with a redirect to Bernar Venet or to List of public art in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 04:37, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

- Keep, the standard for references for artworks on Wikipedia seems to be a page or catalog link at the exhibiting museum, which in this case is MIT. The sculptor, Bernar Venet, is notable, and the overall MIT collection is notable. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:58, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
- Comment it isn't clear to me that there are clear guidelines for artworks themselves. There should be. I have seen recently the argument that inclusion in a National Gallery is equivalent to an Encyclopedia, thus establishes N. It seems like just about every public figurative sculpture (aka Monument) in Boston has a page. Most of these only have one citation, to their entry in the Smithsonians' Save Outdoor Sculpture! initiative, "a community-based effort to identify, document, and conserve outdoor sculpture in the United States. The program was initiated in 1989 and ended in 1999." This seems like two very different standards are being applied, largely based on the subject matter of the artwork.
