Because San Francisco isn’t wacky enough, the city reportedly erected a giant naked woman statue to greet visitors.

The viral video does not clarify whether the rudimentary statue is near completion, but a hilarious clip shows a worker performing a ‘surgical procedure’ on the statue’s backside.

Trending Politics co-owner Collin Rugg reported on the “45’ tall” statue designed to “jazz up downtown.”

“The sculpture and base weigh 30,000 pounds,” Rugg reported.

NEW: San Francisco has erected a statue of a woman with no clothes on which will be greeting visitors in front of the Ferry Building.

The 45-foot-tall statue was installed to “jazz up downtown” according to CBS News.

“‘This sculpture is about being seen. Women’s presence in public art is rare. When they are depicted, it is often through outdated or passive narratives,’ said artist Marco Cochrane.

“‘She stands strong, aware, and grounded—calling for a world where all people can walk freely and without fear.'”

The scene elicited plenty of spirited commentary:

I’m surprised it doesn’t have a penis.

Nothing says “reviving downtown” like a 45-foot naked lady getting rear-end surgery.
San Francisco never fails to out-weird itself.

That guy will be telling his story at every party he attends from here on out.

“Women’s presence in public art is rare.”

I own quite a few history books and this is objectively false

“Women’s presence in public art is rare.”

I wonder if he has ever heard of the Renaissance?

When [women] are depicted, it is often through outdated or passive narratives…. She stands strong, aware, and grounded—calling for a world where all people can walk freely and without fear.”

Or, alternatively, this is just a big statue of a naked woman.

Yup.

Nothing screams “empowerment” like a 45-foot naked statue getting a BBL tune-up by a guy in a hard hat while tourists try not to make eye contact. Stunning and brave.

True, but at least the retro art was more creative.
