"The tallest sculpture in San Francisco — a twisty genie in shiny steel — is rising along Market Street, and nobody can see it.

The public artwork is called “Venus,” and right now it is hidden behind construction fences and scaffolding, and surrounded by three residential towers that will comprise Trinity Place, the apartment complex at Market and Eighth streets.

When Trinity Place opens next spring, the 92-foot “Venus” will be the main attraction in a public art garden that is the final statement by landlord and housing developer Angelo Sangiacomo, who died in December at age 91." (visit link)
