The capstone to Picasso's long and fabled career as a sculptor and modernist, the sculpture has defined the city of Chicago for generations and stands as a peerless example of the union of modern art and civic architecture. Here, art historian Patricia Stratton tells the inside story of the sculpture for the first time, published to coincide with the 50th anniversary celebration of the famous unveiling. Relying on exclusive archival interviews and extensive research, all the controversial possibilities of the sculpture's inspiration are explored. 600 10 Picasso, Pablo,|d1881-1973. 600 17 Picasso, Pablo,|d1881-1973.|2fast 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Sculpture, Modern|y20th century. 650 7 Sculpture, Modern.|2fast
