Ever since visitors watched its miraculous birth in the Walker’s lobby—pieced together scale by scale by artisans for the exhibition of Frank Gehry’s work here in 1986—the Standing Glass Fish has become a beloved icon in the city’s cultural life. The 22-foot creature waited two years before being carefully disassembled and transported across the street to its permanent habitat: a fantastic lily pond among the Mexican fan palms and calamondin orange trees of the crystalline Cowles Conservatory.
