Moondog is a minimalist sculpture created by Tony Smith in 1964.
[1] The piece is composed of 15 octahedra and 10 tetrahedra, and while perfectly ordered and symmetrical when seen from certain angles, it carries a strong tilt forward when seen from other angles.
The title refers to Joan Miró's painting Dog Barking at the Moon and a blind poet and composer named Moondog.
[3] In 1997, it showed at Paula Cooper Gallery.
[2] The work currently resides in the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden.
