UNITY by Lorenzo Quinn

A commission for the BL Harbert International Group HQ, USA

'This week we unveiled a piece of art we have had commissioned by Lorenzo Quinn. The name of the piece is “Unity.”  That is exactly what we are doing today.  We are unified in our defense of this virus, and we are unified in our support of each other.  This is an exceptionally strong piece, with an exceptionally strong message.  This monumental piece will sit at the entrance of the International Office and will forever stand as the pillar of our organization.  I don’t believe any of us would have imagined how meaningful the title of this piece would become.  Now, more than any time in recent history, we must remain UNIFIED.'

Chuck Bohn, President, BL Harbert International Group

Lorenzo Quinn speaks a universally recognised language. Through his poetic words and strong gestural sculptures Lorenzo strikes a chord with people all over the world. On a monumental and an intimate scale, his artworks have the ability to cross all barriers of gender, race, age, religion or politics. 

BL Harbert International is a diversified construction company working in the U.S. and abroad. The company is one of the country’s most influential contractors, a leader in sustainable construction, and a top design-builder. This 4-meter monumental Unity sculpture embodies the core values of BL Harbert International, nine pairs of hands clasped together around a globe, working to build and serve a worldwide community through:

DIVERSITY: UNDERSTANDING AND CELEBRATING OUR DIFFERENCES  

RESPECT: TOTAL REGARD FOR OTHERS 

INCLUSION: ENGAGING WITH EACH INDIVIDUAL TO CREATE A CULTURE OF BELONGING 

EQUALITY: IN STATUS AND RIGHTS  

UNITY: AS A COMPLETE AND HARMONIOUS WHOLE 

'Unity reminds us of the incredible power art has to make a statement that transcends all of our daily lives and leaves an indelible mark on each one of us.'
Paul Green, Founder & President, 海角社区

'After three years in the making, finally the day has come to inaugurate Unity at the BL Harbert HQ in Birmingham, Alabama. BL Harbert is an incredible company that operates more like a big family than a company and Unity is a tribute to this.'
