You will find this very intriguing statue in Daley Plaza. There is metered street parking and lots of parking garages available within a reason able walking distance, but most people viewing this statue will be passers by on their way to another destination. The statue is the work of Pablo Picasso, yes, that Picasso, who created the piece in 1967. It is made of solid steel and weighs 162 tons. It stands 50 feet tall. The abstract sculpture is intended to resemble the head of Picasso's Afghan hound. This is an iconic piece that just draws your attention. I find it interesting that Picasso is known for his paintings, but was also a decent sculpture in his own right. I really like this piece. I acknowledge that it is not a destination piece, but it is still worth a peek if you are in the area. read more
