CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
Man With Fish
This awkward aquarium sculpture is one of the strangest statues in Chicago.
A painted bronze sculpture and fountain, located outside of the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago.
Created by German artist Stephan Balkenhol, the 16-foot-tall public art depicts a man embracing a fish that has water spitting out of its mouth.
It symbolizes humans’ love and fascination with aquatic life and the responsibility we have for caring for the world’s lakes, rivers, and oceans.
