SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- Artist Marco Cochrane’s "R-Evolution," a stunning 45-foot-tall sculpture of a naked woman, will be unveiled in San Francisco's Union Square in February. The sculpture is a symbol of "feminine strength and empowerment," according to organizers of the project. Originally created as part of a triptych for the 2015 Burning Man festival, the nude figure will remain in Union Square Park from February 6 through the end of May.

"R-Evolution will help people see Union Square from a new perspective while inspiring appreciation for the power of public art."

"Public art is a cornerstone of San Francisco’s cultural identity, reflecting the diverse, creative spirit that helps establish our city as a world class destination for self-expression," said Ralph Remington, director of cultural affairs. "The temporary installation of R-Evolution in Union Square, in the heart of San Francisco, is a celebration of that spirit."
