The Picasso Statue in Chicago, IL stands 50 feet tall and weighs over 160 tons, serving as a beloved icon and famous sculpture in the city. Commissioned in 1963 by the architects of the Richard J. Daley Center, this untitled Picasso sculpture sparked controversy before becoming a significant part of Chicago's public art scene.

Located in Daley Plaza, the Chicago Picasso is a representation of the cultural and modern changes of the 1960s, standing out from traditional historical figure sculptures prevalent in other cities during that time. Embraced by Chicagoans, this iconic sculpture symbolizes the city's artistic evolution and architectural innovation.
