Chicago Picasso
CultureVisit: ~15 min
Monumental Cor-Ten steel sculpture about 15 metres tall, installed in 1967 in Daley Plaza, in front of City Hall. It is the work of Pablo Picasso, who donated the design without payment and never gave it a title, which is why everyone simply calls it The Chicago Picasso. It has been interpreted as a woman's face, a bird or a baboon.
