Powered by - Chicago is famous for its outdoor public art with donors establishing funding for such art as far back as Benjamin Ferguson's 1905 trust. A number of Chicago's public art works are non-statuary and by famous artists. Among these are Chagall's Four Seasons; the Chicago Picasso; Miro's Chicago; Calder's Flamingo; Oldenburg's Batcolumn; Moore's Large Interior Form, 1953-54, Man Enters the Cosmos and Nuclear Energy; Dubuffet's Monument with Standing Beast, Abakanowicz's Agora; and, Anish Kapoor's Cloud Gate which has become an icon of the city. Some events which shaped the city's history have also been memorialized by art works, including the Great Northern Migration (Saar) and the centennial of statehood for Illinois. Finally, two fountains near the Loop also function as monumental works of art: Plensa's Crown Fountain and Burnham and Bennett's Buckingham Fountain.
More representational (statuary) public art includes a number of works by Lorado Taft (Fountain of Time, The Crusader, Eternal Silence, and the Heald Square Monument completed by Crunelle), French's Statue of the Republic, Edward Kemys's Lions, Saint-Gaudens's Abraham Lincoln: The Man (aka Standing Lincoln) and Abraham Lincoln: The Head of State (aka Seated Lincoln), Brioschi's Christopher Columbus, Meštrović's The Bowman and The Spearman, Dallin's Signal of Peace, Fairbanks's The Chicago Lincoln, Boyle's The Alarm, Polasek's memorial to Masaryk, memorials along Solidarity Promenade to Kościuszko, Havliček and Copernicus by Chodzinski, Strachovský, and Thorvaldsen, a memorial to General Logan by Saint-Gaudens, and Kearney's Moose (W-02-03). A number of statues also honor recent local heroes such as Michael Jordan (by Amrany and Rotblatt-Amrany), Stan Mikita, and Bobby Hull outside of the United Center; Harry Caray (by Amrany and Cella) outside Wrigley field, Jack Brickhouse (by McKenna) next to the WGN studios, and Irv Kupcinet at the Wabash Avenue Bridge.
There are preliminary plans to erect a 1:1‑scale replica of Wacław Szymanowski's Art Nouveau statue of Frédéric Chopin found in Warsaw's Royal Baths along Chicago's lakefront in addition to a different sculpture commemorating the artist in Chopin Park for the 200th anniversary of Frédéric Chopin's birth.

NIFE Downtown Chicago Tour, Part 1
On Saturday, May 20, members of NIFE (Northern Illinois Fiero Enthusiasts) did something a little different; instead of a how-to meeting regarding Fieros, we went on a tour of downtown Chicago, led by activities director Art Hall and his wife, Cathy.
Art is familiar with downtown, having worked for engineering consulting firms in the Loop. An added fun fact: the flagpole attachment stanchions on the North Michigan Avenue bridge over the Chicago River? His design.
Our tour included the Thompson Center, Chicago Temple Church (the only skyscraper with a Gothic steeple on top) Daley Plaza, the Picasso, the Miro sculpture near the Cook County Building, Marina City, the IBM Building, Trump Tower, the Wrigley Building, the Tribune Tower, the site of Fort Dearborn, and the dark green and gold Art Deco Carbide and Carbon Building. The highlight of the day: a guided tour of the Chicago Theater, during which video recording was not allowed.

Chicago Picasso es una escultura monumental sin título de Pablo Picasso en Chicago, Illinois. La escultura, dedicada el 15 de agosto de 1967, en Daley Plaza en Chicago Loop, mide 50 pies de alto y pesa 162 toneladas corta
Artist Pablo Picasso
Year 1967
Medium Sculpture
Fabricator: American Bridge Company
Dimensions 15 m (50 ft)
Location Daley Plaza, Chicago
41°53′01″N 87°37′48″W
An architect who worked on the Daley Center project, Richard Bennett, wrote Picasso a poem asking him to make the sculpture.[6] Picasso accepted saying You know I never accept commissions to do any sort of work, but in this case I am involved in projects for the two great gangster cities (the other being Marseille, France). Picasso refused the $100,000 payment, considering his work a gift to the people of Chicago.[7]
The sculpture was fabricated by the American Bridge Company division of the United States Steel Corporation in Gary, Indiana using COR-TEN steel, before being disassembled and relocated to Chicago.[1] The steel for this statue was rolled in the USS Gary Works 160/210 plate mill, then the largest rolling mill of its kind in the world. Before fabrication of the final steel sculpture was started, a 3.5 meter (~12 feet) tall wooden model was constructed for Picasso to approve, this was eventually sent to the Gary Career Center.[8] Ground was broken in Daley Plaza for the construction of the sculpture on May 25, 1967.[9]
The efforts of the City of Chicago to publicize the sculpture — staging a number of press events before the sculpture was completed, and displaying the maquette without a copyright notice — were cited as evidence in a 1970 U.S. District Court case where the judge ruled that the city's actions had resulted in the sculpture being dedicated to the public domain.[5]
Controversy
The sculpture was initially met with controversy.[10] Before the Picasso sculpture, public sculptural artwork in Chicago was mainly of historical figures.[3] One derisive Chicago City Council alderman, John Hoellen, immediately proposed replacing it with a statue of Ernie Banks,[11] and Chicago publicist and science fiction writer Algis Budrys erected a giant pickle on the proposed site.[12] There was speculation on the subject, which has ranged from a bird, or aardvark to Picasso's pet Afghan Hound, a baboon head,[13] the Egyptian deity Anubis,[14] or Sylvette David, one of his models.
Newspaper columnist Mike Royko, covering the unveiling of the sculpture, wrote: Interesting design, I'm sure. But the fact is, it has a long stupid face and looks like some giant insect that is about to eat a smaller, weaker insect. Royko did credit Picasso with understanding the soul of Chicago. Its eyes are like the eyes of every slum owner who made a buck off the small and weak. And of every building inspector who took a wad from a slum owner to make it all possible.... You'd think he'd been riding the L all his life. [15]
Inspiration
View taken in 2007
Although Picasso never explained what the sculpture was intended to represent, it may have been inspired by a French woman, Sylvette David, now known as Lydia Corbett, who posed for Picasso in 1954. Then 19 years old and living in Vallauris, France, Corbett would accompany her artist boyfriend as he delivered chairs made of metal, wood and rope. One of those deliveries was to Picasso, who was struck by her high ponytail and long neck. He made many portraits of her. At the time, most people thought he was drawing the actress Brigitte Bardot. But in fact, he was inspired by [Corbett], Picasso's grandson Olivier Widmaier Picasso told the Chicago Sun-Times in 2004.
I think the Chicago Sculpture was inspired by her, said the grandson, author of Picasso, the Real Family Story. Picasso made 40 works inspired by her, said the grandson, including The Girl Who Said No, reflecting their platonic relationship. The quality of the Picasso sculpture inspired other artists such as Alexander Calder, Marc Chagall, Joan Miró, Claes Oldenburg and Henry Moore.
An Afghan Hound dog
This sculpture is also seen as an abstract replica of an Afghan Hound dog. Picasso had a Dachshund dog, Lump, which was the former companion to an Afghan Hound dog owned by Picasso's friend David Douglas Duncan. In the 1970s Jacqueline Picasso explained to Neil Thomas an Australian lady it was simply a male Baboon viewed from head on. Picasso loved the way the creature changed as you viewed it from different angles; it was part of continuation of his lifelong inspiration from Africa.

Rudy Kato Rangel of Chicago was a well known figure in the Hip Hop world and on the streets of Chicago when he was gunned down in 2003.... and his name has now resurfaced in connection with two major RICO trials currently happening in New York and Chicago; El Chapo Guzman and the 4 Corner Hustler Gang. What do they have in common? The Flores twins... El Chapo's customers and the men that Kato Rangel allegedly robbed... leading to his demise. Kato was so well known that even chart topping rapper DMX made a song about him.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping!

SUMMARY
=======
Chicago ( (listen), locally also ), officially the City of Chicago, is the third most populous city in the United States. As of the 2017 census-estimate, Chicago has a population of 2,716,450, which makes it the most populous city in both the state of Illinois and the Midwestern United States. It is the county seat of Cook County, the second most populous county in the United States. Chicago is the principal city of the Chicago metropolitan area, which is often referred to as Chicagoland. The Chicago metropolitan area has nearly 10 million people, is the third-largest in the United States, the fourth largest in North America, and the third largest metropolitan area in the world by land area.
Located on the shores of Lake Michigan, Chicago was incorporated as a city in 1837 near a portage between the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River watershed and grew rapidly in the mid-nineteenth century. After the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which destroyed several square miles and left more than 100,000 homeless, the city made a concerted effort to rebuild. The construction boom accelerated population growth throughout the following decades, and by 1900 Chicago was one of the five largest cities in the world. During this period, Chicago made noted contributions to urban planning and zoning standards, including new construction styles (including the Chicago School of architecture), the development of the City Beautiful Movement, and the steel-framed skyscraper.Chicago is an international hub for finance, commerce, industry, technology, telecommunications, and transportation. It was the site of the creation of the first standardized futures contracts at the Chicago Board of Trade, which today is the largest and most diverse derivatives market in the world, generating 20% of all volume in commodities and financial futures. O'Hare International Airport is the one of the busiest airports in the world, and the region also has the largest number of U.S. highways and railroad freight. In 2012, Chicago was listed as an alpha global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, and it ranked seventh in the entire world in the 2017 Global Cities Index. Chicago has the fourth-largest gross metropolitan product in the world—generating about $670.5 billion accordi ...
