Summary
"In early summer 2022, the AGO installed a bold new sculpture by acclaimed contemporary artist Brian Jungen. This work is the museum's first ever public art commission, and will be situated at the corner of Dundas and McCaul Streets--the former setting for Henry Moore's Large Two Forms (1966-1969). Entitled Couch Monster: Sadzě? yaagheh̜ch'ill, Jungen's new sculpture for this outdoor space is a monument to creative form and engineering. In his first large-scale work in bronze, Jungen has constructed the figure of an elephant from discarded leather sofas."--
