Have you ever walked around Downtown Chicago and stumble across a giant orange spider web and said “oh that’s BEAUTIFUL”?
Neither has anyone else.
Nevertheless, Calder’s Flamingo is a recognizable statue that can at least alert pedestrians and motorists where they are in the city.
It even had an appearance in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off in the parade scene.
Shrog and Bob stumble across the statue with hilarious results.
