The chromed aluminum figure was requested by Charlotte Bruel-Matovic, the daughter of the founder of Bateaux-Mouches, in an effort to support and promote contemporary art along the river. The inclusion of the T-rex along the waterway is already an intriguing spectacle. It’s size and unexpected placement in the area adds a new and ironic sense of life. The piece may even prove to be a great tourist attraction over time with hoards of visitors wanting to angle their cameras in such a way that it looks like the skeletal dinosaur is about to consume the Eiffel Tower.
