Big Blue Bear

Denver's "Big Blue Bear" is a 40 foot (12.2 m) fiberglass and steel sculpture by artist Lawrence Argent. Officially the bear's title is "I See What You Mean". He was installed in 2005 at a cost of $424,000. He looks into the Colorado Convention Center, symbolizing curiosity about what is transpiring at the conventions being held within.

 

This sculpture is one of several massive art works that are sprinkled around the Denver downtown. The "Big Blue Bear", resembling a child's toy, is one of the more endearing to residents.
