Iron Man is in Victoria Square situated outside the old Head Post Office. By Antony Gormley this well-known piece is perhaps more appreciated by visitors than locals who seem to have antibodies to anything even mildly unconventional on Birmingham's streets. Since Iron Man Antony Gormley has become very well known for his Angel of the North and more recently his involvement with the public art initiatives at the Millennium Dome.

The book Positively Birmingham is full of photos and details of Birmingham's huge input into art on the streets.
