A lot and rock and not a lot of head. This sculpture by Egon Weiner was meant to celebrate Frank Lloyd Wright’s contributions to Oak Park. But the effects of weathering make it kind of scary looking.

There is one comment.

  I am a CAF docent for the FLW Forest walk, and tourees are unfailingly fascinated to see the sculpture of Wright at the entrance to Austin Gardens. It is rumored once to have been stolen, then returned.
