Jaume Plensa in Chicago 

One of the most popular tourist destinations in Chicago is the Millennium Park. One of it’s major attractions if the Crown Fountain by the Spanish artist Jaume Plensa. The fountain consists of two 50-foot glass block towers at each end of a shallow reflecting pool. The towers project video images from a broad social spectrum of Chicago citizens,  on LED screens and have water flow through an outlet in the screen to give the illusion of water spouting from their mouths. The collection of faces, Plensa’s tribute to Chicagoans, was taken from a cross-section of 1,000 residents.
