NEW YORK — Should the “Fearless Girl” stand up to Wall Street’s charging bull forever?
That’s the question New York City officials are facing after the statue of a ponytailed girl in a windblown dress went up in front of the bronze bull early this month and immediately became a tourist draw and internet sensation.
What was intended as a temporary display to send the message that corporations should put more women on their boards is now getting a second look in light of the popularity and an online petition.
But does keeping the girl past an April 2 deadline forever alter the meaning of the bull?
The artist who created the bull as a symbol of America’s economic strength has said it would. He wants the girl gone.
