In October 2024, New York City’s High Line will feature oversized 21-foot pigeon sculpture that flips the script on traditional monuments.

“Dinosaur” sculpture of a Pigeon designed by talented artist Iván Argote.

Named to evoke both its massive scale and ancient lineage, “Dinosaur” reflects on extinction and survival.

It hints at a future where, much like the dinosaurs, humans might vanish, leaving behind resilient remnants like pigeons.

Instead of honoring historical figures, giant sculpture elevates the everyday pigeon, a ubiquitous but often overlooked city dweller.

Art installation celebrates the pigeon’s storied past as a domesticated animal and wartime messenger bird.

It humorously suggests that pigeons, with their urban resilience and immigrant roots, deserve a place on the pedestal just as much as any historical figure.

“Dinosaur” promises to ruffle feathers and resonate deeply with New Yorkers.

Giant Pigeon sculpture by Iván Argote was commissioned by the High Line.

“Dinosaur” hyper-realistic pigeon sculpture, lands on the High Line in October.
