The threat of nuclear warfare has motivated many artists to use their art to bring to attention what they feel is a world crisis. Yesterday, a huge anti-war installation by sculptor Thomas Faulkner was placed in Bryant Park on 42d St. between Fifth and Sixth Aves. The installation funded by the Bryant Park Restoration and Public Art Fund consists of a 120-by-60 foot maze that includes 100 plaques noting famous battles. Around the maze there are a series of windows mounted on poles and captapults with 100 pound rocks symbolizing missiles. The title of the installation, "People Who Live..." comes from the phrase "people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." Faulkner said yesterday: "Because of the threat of nuclear war, we all live in glass houses."
