‘Broken Chair’ is the work of sculptor Daniel Berset. It was made in 1997 for the NGO Handicap International. Its message is simple: remember the victims of landmines, urge your government to promote a ban on landmines and cluster bombs. To illustrate this combat, the Broken Chair stands on three legs, the fourth being splintered half way up. It is in United Nations Plaza.
