  • THE BEAN | CLOUD GATE
    It can be found in the heart of Chicago. Specifically, you can find it in Millennium Park, a lakefront park in the Loop or downtown Chicago. The Chicago Bean is 33 feet high, 43 feet wide, and 66 feet long. It also weighs a massive 110 tons.
    The official title of this public art sculpture is “Cloud Gate”. This is because 80% of the steel sculpture’s surface reflects the sky and bends it on both sides into a “gate” shape. Not to mention, the curved shape allows an entrance underneath for visitors to walk through and enter the park.
    However, Anish Kapoor doesn’t title his works before they are finished. So, before the attraction was even named, Chicagoans started calling it “the Bean” after seeing the planned design. This is due to its closed curve shape that is similar to a bean. The nickname then stuck.
