Marilyn statue unveiled in Chicago
The film scene and photographs taken from it left much more to the imagination than artist Seward Johnson's sculpture. Chicago has a history of public art displays, including a herd of fibreglass cows that lined Michigan Avenue some years back. The plaza where Monroe will be stationed until next spring was the home a few years ago to another Johnson sculpture: the equally iconic, though far less glamorous, grim-faced farmer and his spinster daughter from Grant Wood's "American Gothic."
