This is the Michael Jordan Statue in front of United Center in Chicago. The sculptors were the husband and wife team of Omri and Julie Rotblatt-Amrany. There is a lot of texture in this statue as the surface is very rough and distressed when viewing it at a close distance. When viewing it at an distance, it is the iconic Jordan Jumpman. The statue seem to be in proportion and and in scale. In my opinion, this sculpture is very dramatic as it is an action that is at the pinnacle of basketball. You can also see the effects of shadows and the contrast on the art work. It really reminds me of Michaelangelo and Pisano's human sculptures.
