PHILADELPHIA MUSEUM OF ART (WPVI) -- A different type of artistry took place outside the Philadelphia Museum of Art Monday.

The sculpture, called Social Consciousness, is being relocated to make way for renovations at the museum.

It is being moved to the university of Pennsylvania on a 99 year loan.
