Fearless Girl facing Charging Bull

Kristen Visbal's bronze Fearless Girl was installed on March 7, 2017 facing Arturo Di Modica's Charging Bull at Bowling Green. Commissioned by State Street Global Advisors to promote gender-diverse corporate leadership, the statue quickly became a widely discussed example of corporate-sponsored public art. Its placement and messaging sparked public debate about the use of public space and corporate influence in monuments.
