Other | Mayor Bloomberg unveils Human Nature sculpture

Bloomberg; artist Ugo Rondinone; Director and Chief Curator of Public Art Fund Nicholas Baume; and President of Nespresso USA Frederic Levy. Created by Swiss-born, New York-based artist Rondinone, Human Nature includes nine colossal stone figures standing like ancient sentries.
