Public art - The art institute of Chicago

I am a fan of urban art but some of it just doesn’t work because the art is placed in a setting that isn’t very appealing.  I like this art and love the setting.  It is on the sidewalk in front of the Art Institute of Chicago.  The buildings in the background make a wonderful backdrop and some how it all looks like it belongs there.  I liked the use of traffic cones too.  They are such a common site here it is nice to see them on the sidewalk instead of blocking the road for a change.
