Right in the middle of the city, the Plaza Botero is a great example of the outdoors art available in Medellín: 23 statues of the famous painter-sculptor-son of the city are freely accessible to anyone.
At one point, a wedding couple was having their pictures taken near some of the statue, until the bride was carried to one of the lying women, posing with a little shy smile in front of it - what she did not notice, was her husband who threw himself up the enormous ass of the statue. But even though some people might be incited to vulgar behaviour when confronted with statues of naked people, the great thing of the Botero statues in the open air, available to everyone, is that it makes art so much more accessible to all. It is hard to imagine these statues inside a museum, with only a selected audience to enjoy them.
