Grucza’s sculptures are intended to invite viewers of varied interests to appreciate the aesthetic worth and the interactive pleasure of public art. “Lake Street Lovely” originates from Grucza’s love of Chicago’s Lake Street elevated line. The large painted steel structure forms a whimsical image reminiscent of a rail switching stand.
Grucza always incorporates humor, play and wonder in his work. In “Lake Street Lovely” he uses these elements to depict his nostalgia toward this Chicago treasure in the hope that you will enjoy it along with him.
