Contrapunto is a sculpture from a unknown artist offered by Mexico to the city of Lisbon in 1991.
The sculpture is made of red painted metal and can be found near the IST (Instituto Superior Técnico, a Technical/Scientific University in Portugal) in front of the MIT headquarters in Lisbon.
It´s placed on the walkway in the middle of the street and stays unnoticed. I found it when I was driving by.
