New Sculpture in the City!

What a surprise on my walk today. This has been going up since last spring, and today it was totally 'revealed.' It's really an interesting structure from different angles, so I'm sure I'll be pasting more from various angles.
It's called "Constellation" by Santiago Calatrava.

Its funny but nearly all sculptures nowadays seem to need a story or a description!

[Graeme Stevens]

Very cool sculpture - I think it needs to be in my garden...

[Diana]

Beautiful shot of the city, rather unusual sculpture and colour.

[eDorre]

Love the color and energy of this sculpture! Can't wait for more angles. The shapes in this shot play nicely together!

Is there some meaning? Fabulous shot with the city in the background.

[Kathy A]

[Elizabeth]

Fabulous view of the sculpture and and buildings in the background.

[Issi Bannerman]

Oh, I really like this. It's great to get a new sculpture in the city. Do you know who the sculptor/artist is?

[Pam Knowler]

Gorgeous artwork against a stunning backdrop! You are so lucky in Chicago to have such wonderful pieces of art around the city.

[Beau]

Love how you were able to take a wonderful sculpture and create a juxtaposition with the cityscape beyond.

[Joyce Lancaster]

Interesting sculpture. I really like it and look forward to seeing more!! Fav

[Casablanca]

Does it have a title? Going down the plughole? Whirlwind? Smoke Curling? I like it. It has a fascinating shape.

[Rob Z]

What a marvellous shape against that cityscape! It feels so organic against the geometric lines.

[aikiuser (jenn)]

[Anja]

Interesting sculpture. Beautiful, with the buildings in the background.

Fabulous sculpture, I like the contrasting colours and shapes in this image. I heard on tonight's news that Chicago has has had a huge increase in Covid infections. I hope that you are doing ok and staying safe.

[KV]

Beautiful sculpture and awesome city view... but where are the people?

[Esta Moon Artistry]

I can imagine your surprise at such a new addition to downtown. I'm glad you're getting out for walks.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Oh wow, it is so interesting looking. Excellent capture.

[Casablanca]

PS I just did a bit of research online and found it is named "Constellation."

[Allison Maltese]

That is an amazing vantage point and your shot is ultra-sharp.

Very cool

[carol white]

Great capture.Fav😊

[Pat Knowles]

It looks amazing against that city scape! It must have a meaning so will wait fir the story when you find out!

[Leslie]

excellently composed ... It showed on the news here this morning a sign saying the Pier was closed.

[Gosia]

Interesting sculpture with great background composition

[haskar]

Very cool sculpture.

[Taffy]

@casablanca Thanks! I was a bit lazy about not looking it up before posting!

[Kathy]

Nicely captured. When I was in Chicago 2 years ago I was amazed by the architecture. No surprise, right. But you have done such a nice job using these marvelous structures as background for your photos, yet they are very clear and detailed despite not being the prominent feature.

[Milanie]

This is really neat - and looks like the perfect place was chosen for it with that background.

[George]

Superb composition.

[Clare Gadsby]

mmm what fun to come upon this - so cool!

[Rick]

Interesting sculpture. Great capture.

Fabulous, especially against the city background.

[CC Folk]

Very cool sculpture and capture!

[Helen Jane]

I had to fav them all - so different from the different angles, but even so, this last one (for me, working backwards) - with the full shape revealed came as a wonderful surprise to me.
