Agora, Public sculpture installation in Grant Park, Chicago, United States.
The installation features 106 nine-foot-tall headless iron torsos arranged in various poses, depicting figures walking or standing still across the park landscape.
Created by Polish artist Magdalena Abakanowicz and installed in 2006, the sculpture was donated to Chicago with support from the Polish Ministry of Culture.
The artwork reflects Abakanowicz's experiences during World War II and Soviet rule, exploring themes of collective human behavior and crowd dynamics through anonymous figures.
Located at the intersection of South Michigan Avenue and East Roosevelt Drive, the sculpture is easily accessible to visitors exploring Grant Park's attractions.
Visitors can walk among the 106 cast iron figures, experiencing different perspectives as they move through this interactive outdoor art installation.
