Over 15 years, the sculptor J. Seward Johnson created a large number of works for Chicago, mostly temporary installations, and largely situated in Pioneer Court, the large public space between the Gothic Tribune Tower to the north, the steel-and-glass Equitable Building to the West, the Chicago River to the south (and since 2019, the Apple Store), and Michigan Avenue and the Spanish-styled terra-cotta-clad Wrigley Building to the West.
