What can you say about it? Its a strangely intriguing piece of sculpture sitting outside the Thompson center. I really like it, and find myself staring at it whenever Im down here. But, that being said, I dont think I would ever go out of my way to go and look at it. If Im nearby with tourists, I might make the suggestion, but otherwise I just simply enjoy it when it pops up in my life.
Jean Dubuffet sculpture built in 1984, one of Chicagos public art treasures hidden in plain sight. Makes a nice walking tour stop, dont miss the Picasso, Nevelson, Chagall, Calder, etc. in the Loop. Theres lots of great public art downtown besides the bean, if you look for it.
This is a good landmark for those looking for the J R Thompson Center on Clark and Lake. I remember wandering around inside of this sculpture once as a child when my mother brought me to the Thompson Center to take care of some business. I noticed that theyve been doing a good job of keeping it clean lately.
Ugly statue good place to meet because everyone in the city is familiar with this statue
Smells like pee.
I like public art displayed in the streets and squares. This huge construction has big open space surrounding. Great place to people watch. It is easy to notice from transport or by walking. It is right in front of Thompson Center.
Lots of pokestops and gyms in the radius
Iconic architecture and sculpture
Very good art.
Its not exciting at all. Too bland
Strange piece of Artwork....

Classic sculpture by Clark/Lake
Not the most popular of sculptures, outshined by the nearby Daley Plaza Picasso and Miro statues across from that.
