I chose to do Louise Bourgeois's Katz Plaza Fountain and Eyeball Benches. It is located at 639 Penn Ave (Penn Ave and 7th St) Downtown, Pittsburgh PA. It was installed from 1996-1999 and is made of bronze, fiber optic lighting and granite. It has a 25 foot high fountain that has heated water. Surrounding the fountain are three different pair of benches in the shape of huge eyes. I chose this piece because it is unique and inviting for people to come and see the art, and even sit on the art. I also enjoy that it is in a public place where people can just walk by and see it.
