There's a blummin' big headed girl hanging around in Madison Square Park these days...
It's a huge 44 foot tall scuplture entitled 'Echo' by a Spanish Artist called Jaume Plensa. It's supposedly based on his 9 year old daughter, not life size though, I hope!
From certain angles it looks all squished and stretched, especially in photos - but then at other angles it looks normal, it's veeeeery clever...
I love all the art that pops up in Madison Square Park, last year it was Anthony Gormley's Event Horizon in and around the park and this big head's going to be around until the middle of August, so hopefully there'll be something interesting for the Autumn.
