The article focuses on Louise Bourgeois' Helping Hands, a set of life-size hands carved out of black granite columns which is the only permanent public sculpture in Chicago, Illinois that commemorates Nobel Prize winning activist Jane Addams. It says that Helping Hands originated in 1989 when the Jane Addams Memorial Committee gathered at Hull House' 100th anniversary. It states that Ferguson Fund trustees financed a Jane Addams memorial for 250,000 dollars and hired public art expert Mary Jane Jacob as the commissioning curator. It talks on the unsuccessful public art of Helping Hands. It adds that it was relocated to Chicago Women's Park in June 2011. |
