[edit] Art Installation

The sculpture in its current location near the entrance to George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

A large sculpture was commissioned by U.S. President George Bush for the event. It ultimately consisted of several rectangular light pillars with the designs of the flags of the seven participating countries, as well as the flag of the European Union. After the summit, the sculpture was relocated to Houston Intercontinental Airport, which was renamed in honor of the former President some years later.
