Iván Argote's Dinosaur Sculpture Installed in NYC
A giant 21-foot pigeon sculpture named 'Dinosaur' by Colombian artist Iván Argote is set to be installed at New York City's High Line in October 2024, where it will remain for 18 months. The sculpture, which is a hyper-realistic aluminum casting, references the pigeon's dinosaur ancestors and aims to provoke a dialogue about the power dynamics between humans and birds. Argote's work was selected from 80 proposals and has already sparked diverse reactions from New Yorkers, highlighting the beloved yet often overlooked urban wildlife. The installation is part of the High Line's ongoing Plinth program, which seeks to enhance the city's public art landscape. While Argote's piece humorously elevates the common pigeon, it also serves as a reminder of extinction and the impermanence of humanity. The vibrant sculpture will be located above the intersection of 10th Avenue and 30th Street.
