Fearless Girl Statue Will Stay Put Opposite NYSE for Now

By Karen MatthewsThe 4-foot bronze Fearless Girl statue that was deposited in front of New York City's Charging Bull in 2017 will remain in its current spot opposite the New York Stock Exchange at least until early next year while city officials wrestle with a permanent disposition for the popular symbol of female empowerment, a city board decided Monday.

Members of the Public Design Commission granted an 11-month permit extension and said they would spend the next six months exploring a way for New York City to take ownership of the statue, which is currently the subject of litigation between artist Kristen Visbal and State Street Global Advisors, the Boston-based asset-management firm that commissioned it.

“We today, the Public Design Commission, cannot make this a permanent piece of art,” commission president Signe Nielsen said. “We can urge that steps be taken to enable this work to be considered for the public collection.” The statue of a spunky young girl was supposed to be a temporary installation when State Street commissioned it in 2017 to urge higher representation of women on corporate boards, but permits to keep it on display were extended several times once it became a major tourist attraction.Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

The most ridiculous statue ever. so I guess she's opposed to a strong economy? She's 'Fearlessly standing her ground' against progress?

OR. late A.G. Dave Frohnmayer'd deleted all record in Lane C. it shows I'd changed my name to Nadia Sindi. Lift old name Faika Sindi. Changed first letters to Saika Findi! Trapped me in a criminal record since 1987!

Maybe there is a compromise. They can reposition her standing in a pile of bulls**t.

Why is she not side by side with the bull?
