The Calling is an outdoor sculpture by Paddy McCann located in Belfast.[1] Located at the junction of Gordon Street and Dunbar Junction,[2] it consists of a bright red stylised male human figure calling into the distance while standing on an ordinary chair atop an extended (and angled) piston-like arm. A similarly mounted blue female figure, opposite the first, calls back across the square.[3] It was installed in 2003.[4]
