In February 2008, Ellsworth Kelly’s forty-foot-high stainless steel totem was permanently installed in the courtyard garden of the U.S. Embassy in Berlin, Germany. At the same time, a team from Sol LeWitt’s studio installed Wall Drawing #1256: Five Pointed Stars, in the embassy’s Behrenstraße entrance.
