“Can you see what’s wrong with it?”
A security guard asked me that today. I was looking at this statue, “Caution, Man Contemplating Work” by Seward Johnson, which is in a new mixed-use development in the South Loop of Chicago.
I started looking more closely. Two left feet? A tool held in an unrealistic way?
“It isn’t something hard to see,” the guard said. “It’ll jump out at you.”
I looked a little more and there it was — on his head is a New York Yankees cap. I pointed that out.
“Yeah, it was supposed to be the Cubs,” he said.
