Repost from hyperallergic • Anish Kapoor‘s “Cloud Gate” sculpture has become one of Chicago’s most famous attractions, and now, a “mini-Bean” — as the work is being affectionately called — has arrived in New York City. The Manhattan version is smaller (40 tons instead of 110), and rather than sitting in a public park, it’s huddled underneath the luxury condominium tower at 56 Leonard Street in Tribeca.
