Kvinneakt, Bronze sculpture in Downtown Portland, United States
Kvinneakt stands 180 centimeters tall on SW Sixth Avenue between Alder and Morrison streets, depicting a full-length nude female figure in bronze.
Norman J Taylor created this sculpture between 1973 and 1975 with funding from TriMet and the United States Department of Transportation for the Portland Transit Mall.
The sculpture represents one of forty public art pieces in the Transit Mall collection, selected from over 500 entries in a juried competition.
Visitors can locate the sculpture along the Portland Outdoor Sculpture Tour route and learn about its history through the VoiceMap audio guide application.
In 1981, three people attempted to steal the 250-pound statue but were stopped by a city worker, resulting in damage that required 3,000 dollars in repairs.
