Crown Fountain is a captivating public art installation located in Chicago's Millennium Park. Designed by Spanish artist Jaume Plensa and completed in 2004, the fountain features two 50-foot glass block towers at each end of a shallow reflecting pool. The towers display digital videos of Chicago residents' faces, which periodically spout water from their mouths, creating the illusion of a gargoyle-like water feature.
