The Houston Penetrable is final and most ambitious work by artist Jesús Rafael Soto

The Houston Penetrable is the only one designed by Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto as a semi-permanent piece, and one of the few he created as an indoor piece. It was the artist’s final and most ambitious work, and it was on display last summer at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Texas.
