The official name of this Millennium Park sculpture is Cloud Gate but I like to refer to it as the Giant Jelly Bean. It's fascinating to walk around it as it provides an alternate view of the Chicago skyline. It's interesting to peer at yourself in the sculpture as it provides a backdrop of you against the Chicago skyline. I think the whole thing helps place park visitors in a whimsical mood. It is located in the AT & T Plaza and is the work of artist Anish Kapoor. I understand that the sculpture was inspired by liquid mercury.
