French artist Jean Dubuffet’s sculpture “Monument with Standing Beast,” once dubbed “Snoopy in a Blender,” will move to the former BMO Harris Bank building at 115 S. LaSalle St. - the building recently purchased by the state to replace some of the office space lost with the Thompson Center sale.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
This abomination should be moved to a scrap heap. I’ve seen two year olds sculpt better.
I know that plaza well, and that sculpture is way too big for that space. It will overpower that space and it doesn’t belong there.
