wmyowell Posted January 7, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted January 7, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Last summer a new sculpture was unveiled in Chicago's Millinium Park (a part of Grant Park). It's called "Cloud Gate", but everyone in Chicago calls it the Bean. Â [ATTACH]20880[/ATTACH] Â D-Lux 2 Â Bill Yowell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grober Posted January 7, 2007 Share #3 Â Posted January 7, 2007 How far is this sculpture from the Buckingham Fountain? It would be interesting to take some night shots of the fountain's reflections in the Bean, yes? Â Thanks for posting. Â -g Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminw Posted January 7, 2007 Share #4 Â Posted January 7, 2007 Nice image and obviously worth taking a picture. I am a great fan of the artist Anish Kapoor who created this sculpture. However, I don't think he wouldn't approve of it you calling it architecture .... ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â Â Grober, It's not too far, about five short blocks, but the Art Institute blocks the view. Â Thanks for your comment. Â Bill Yowell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I'm sure you are right, and I apologize to him. I'd suppose he's not too happy with every one in Chicago calling it the Bean, either.
