An artist aiming to empower women has installed a nearly 50-foot tall female nude statue between the Ferry Building and Market Street at Embarcadero Plaza. The City authorized the display of the intricate, metal artwork for six months, but it could last a year.
Artist Marco Cochrane said he was nervous going into Tuesday about how smoothly the installation would go, but the assembly of the heavy pieces behind screened fencing went rapidly — by noon, her incomplete form already towered over the site.
