Giant Eye, Fiberglass sculpture in Downtown Dallas, United States
The Giant Eye measures 30 feet in height and weighs 9000 pounds, featuring detailed veins and a blue iris against white sclera.
The sculpture stands where the Praetorian Building, Dallas's first skyscraper constructed in 1909, previously occupied the land until 2012.
Artist Tony Tasset created this enormous fiberglass sculpture in 2007, modeling the intricate details after his own eye.
Located at 1601 Main Street, the sculpture remains visible from the street throughout the day and night near the Joule Hotel.
The sculpture first appeared in Chicago's Pritzker Park in 2010 before moving to its current location in Dallas during 2013.
