Venus, by Knox Martin. Painted in 1970, it is located on the south side of the Bayview Correctional Facility at 19th Street and the West Side Highway, across from Chelsea Piers, New York City. Twelve stories high. Now mostly blocked by a glass condominium (100 11th Avenue) and partially repainted — only a sliver remains. Photo by Philip Rubin, June 12, 2005.
