Charging Bull - New York - USA: Charging Bull (sometimes called the Wall Street Bull or the Bowling Green Bull) is a 3,200 kg bronze sculpture by Arturo Di Modica that sits in Bowling Green park near Wall Street. Di Modica spent some US$360,000 to create, cast, and install the sculpture following the 1987 stock market crash as a symbol of the "strength and power of the American people." The sculpture was the artist's idea, not the city's. In an act of "guerrilla art", he trucked it to Lower Manhattan and on December 15, 1989, installed it in front of the New York Stock Exchange as a Christmas gift to the people of New York.
