The Giant Pigeon
Event suggested and led by Danna Feintuch
There is a GIANT pigeon perched on the Highline, cooing to us to come and sketch it.
Visitors are flocking to New York City's famed High Line to see its latest art installation. The 16-foot-tall pigeon sculpture has the city in a flutter. Artist Iván Argote's sculpture titled "Dinosaur" depicts an enormous pigeon looking out over New York's 10th Avenue.
In July, The NYC High Line announced that the massive, hyper-realistic bird would be installed above the intersection of 10th Avenue and 30th Street. The larger-than-life-sized pigeon sits on a concrete plinth that mirrors New York City buildings and sidewalks that the birds call home.
