About this artwork
Artist Andrei Kushnir created this painting on site at Chicago's famous Water Tower, painting the historic structure from across the street on Michigan Avenue. This painting includes much information in the scene as captured by the artist. The beautiful Water Tower is depicted in its natural urban setting, its embrace by nearby tree foliage, construction going on in blocks behind the Water Tower, the colorful newspaper street containers, people…
waiting to cross the street (including a lady with a dog on a leash!) and autos (including a taxicab and a bus). Truly an urban art statement of note, by an artist who grew up in Chicago and who captures its essence in this plein air work.
