The statue sits at the UPTEN building, owned by Stategic Group, and was created by artist Bruno Catalano.

Catalano specializes in seemingly incomplete sculptures, with portions of limbs and bodies missing in interesting ways.

The new Van Gogh Monumental is definitely a piece to check out if you’re in the Victoria Park area, as some Calgarians already had the pleasure of doing:
