Hombre Corriendo, (Man Running) by Germán Cueto is one of just three sculptures by invitational artists for the Ruta de la Amistad. The route was developed as part of “Cultural Olympiad” to commemorate the 1968 Olympics. The other 22 “stations” of the route represent friendship among participating countries around the world
The work stands some six meters high. In bronze, it’s simply two intertwined forms which combine visually to represent a figure in movement. Mounted on the volcanic rock common to the area, the work’s rough finish serves as a suitable introduction to the Pedregal de San Ángel Ecological Area.
The Hombre Corriendo was restored in 2007 and is currently maintained by the UNAM. Just north of the main entrance to the Estadio Olímpico, it’s a seldom scene landmark on Insurgentes Sur.
