I went twice for explore the public Art in chicago with my sister. We take orange line to roosevelt then walk to grant park and museum compus. I went 14 places public art. The most interesting for me is The crown fountain in millenium park. Designed by Spanish artist Jaume Plensa. By having faces of Chicago citizens projected on LED screens and having water flow through an outlet in the screen to give the illusion of water spouting from their mouths. I recommend the tour to everyone who interesting in Art. In this Tour could learn something that the book can not tell. And to feel the real art work front of you.
