J2: Iconic Art

Iconic Art (Journal 2/ Post 8)

Throughout the United States there are many art sculptures that are iconic to Americans, other than monuments like the Lincoln Memorial and the Statue of Liberty there are smaller art sculptures that are very known.



Above is a picture I took while visiting Millennium Park in Chicago, Illinois. The image is of the reflection of me and my fiance Kent with the Chicago skyline behind us, the reflection is from the very well known piece the Cloud Gate which was inspired by liquid mercury.

Below is a image of the sculpture LOVE that was a symbol for peace during the Vietnam War. The piece was created by artist Robert Indiana. This piece is located in the Civic Center Mall.



There are so many different art pieces throughout the world that are growing tourists attraction.
