NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- The work of a world-renowned artist is now in Times Square.
A bronze statue titled "Rumors of War" stands tall on the Broadway Plaza between 46th and 47th streets. It portrays a young African-American man on a horse.
The statue was created by artist Kehinde Wiley, who painted President Barack Obama's official portrait.
Wiley says the statue is his response to confederate sculptures around the country.
