Harmony of The People

In September 2010, Beatriz Gerenstein was commissioned to create a monumental sculpture based on her piece "Dancing in the Sky" from the "Together" collection, for permanent installation in Wanjia Plaza, Pudong, Shanghai, China.

This artwork captures humanity dancing and rejoicing in divine creation. Gerenstein uses allegorical trees whose branches transform into human figures, dancing, holding hands, and supporting each other. Her sculptures depict life’s different aspects, from philosophical and religious roots to perpetual renewal.

"Harmony of the People" illustrates the joy of diverse figures dancing together. Each figure moves uniquely, yet all harmonize in a collective flow. Like life, the sculpture shows unity through diversity, achieving a coherent form and dancing in harmony.

Gerenstein collaborated closely with metal foundry experts to bring this 7-meter tall, 5-meter diameter, 5-ton sculpture to life. Installed and unveiled in 2011, it honors humanity’s love, strength, and cooperative spirit. Today, people gather under its peaceful presence for communal activities, reflecting the ongoing dialogue between art and life.
