\"Examples of John V. House\u2019s large-scale sculpture occupy prominent positions in such public buildings as the European Parliament (Luxembourg) and Common Market Headquarters (Brussels); they can also be seen in corporate and religious institutions on four continents. Whether conceived for an outdoor or indoor space, House\u2019s work complements its  architectural setting in both form and feeling. His concepts, usually rich in symbolism, emerge from the meanings and history of the site for which he is designing. House\u2019s intuitively derived forms are invested with a feeling of movement and tension without betraying a sense of architectonic poise. Unlike much of the work being done today for public spaces, it is richly layered in form and meaning; it is never boring.<\/em>\"
