Umm, I Don't Blame Great Britian

From the New York Daily News:
A sculpture fashioned from wreckage of the twin towers — given to the United Kingdom for a public memorial — is languishing in a warehouse.
The 28-foot-tall steel structure, made by New York artist Miya Ando, was intended to honor the 67 British citizens who died during the attacks
Instead, the installation “After 9/11” has been tied up in red tape since its unveiling just before the 10th anniversary of the tragedy in 2011 — and new photos published by The Sun show it wasting away in a Cambridgeshire, England, farmyard.

Below is the picture of the so called art.  To me, it looks like a big piece of junk- it's not art.
A junk yard is a good place for it.

The artwork, called "After 9/11", was commissioned by the 9 11 London Project to mark the launch of its new education program. (AP Photo/Akira Suemori)
