Public Art in the Miami Design District | Urs Fischer: Bus Stop, 2017

 


A Must-See in the Miami Design District, Urs Fischer: Bus Stop, 2017 - located at the Paradise Plaza Garage, 176 NE 41st Street in Miami, Florida 33137. Situated in the Miami Design District sits a new fountain by the artist Urs Fischer. Its backdrop is a re-creation of a Miami Beach bus stop with all its signage and advertisements missing. In its midst, on the bench, is a skeleton, lying on its back, inhabiting this artificial sphere of public space. A constant trickle of water lands on its head and forms a pool below. The skeleton figure is of no particular gender or age. It serves as a representation of anyone.
