Iron Man
United States
The Iron Man statue is a figure of an iron miner located at the entrance to the Minnesota Discovery Center 1.28 kilometres (0.80 mi) outside of Chisholm, Minnesota. It is 85-foot-tall (26 m), including the 36-foot-tall figure (11 m), and was completed in 1987 out of iron ore by Jack E. Anderson. The brass-and-copper 36-foot Iron Man is balanced atop a 49-foot structure of steel and is a tribute to the men who labored in the open-pit mines when the mining industry boomed on the Iron Range of northern Minnesota. The work is titled The Emergence of Man Through Steel and is the fifth-largest freestanding statue in the United States.
