Is it a giant holding a condo? Or is it art? The Large Cube sculpture on St. Clair Avenue West has captivated and confused Toronto since its arrival. Towering over 25 feet tall, this larger-than-life figure clutches a miniature condo building. It stands atop a vibrant collection of colorful cubes. The Large Cube sculpture was commissioned for a luxury condo development at 101 St. Clair. It’s the creation of German artist Stephan Balkenhol, chosen after a rigorous international search. The developers claim the piece “embodies the present moment in the city’s evolution and invites deep contemplation.” One online commenter, however, called it a “bland corporate cog of a white guy jealously clutching glass and steel architecture, while precariously standing astride an assortment of colored building blocks.” Is it a commentary on gentrification? A symbol of Toronto’s obsession with real estate? Or simply a bizarre joke? The Large Cube sculpture continues to spark debate and discussion. One thing is for certain. It has become a landmark in its own right. It is definitely “something”.
