TitleCloud Gate, attaching steel plates, Anish Kapoor's visit, May 10, 2004
DescriptionArtist Anish Kapoor (right) inspects the partially completed sculpture. As is his practice Anish Kapoor did not name his sculpture until it was fairly well complete. The unnamed installation was affectionately known as "the Bean" by Chicagoans, much to the chagrin of Kapoor. However, at the dedication of the sculpture Kapoor acknowledged its colloquial name, his sculpture having become one of the most recognizable and popular pieces of public art in the world.
