the placement of the sculpture arose initially many reactions as it was quite different comparing it with the works of public art of the time in greece. the sculpture found many defenders, between them patroklos karantinos, manolis andronikos, dimitris fatouros, etc. in the meantime the press of the time was divided about the new acquisition of the city. the sculpture is situated on the same spot until today and has been considered as one of the first abstract pieces of art of that size that was built in the public space in greece.
