Cloud Column is a 30-foot, highly polished stainless steel sculpture created by Anish Kapoor and installed at the Brown Foundation Plaza on the Glassell School of Art campus in Houston, Texas, in 2018. Kapoor began work on the sculpture in 1998 and completed it in 2006, making it a precursor to his better-known Cloud Gate (2006) in Chicago. Some Houstonians have given it the nickname El Frijole—a Texas regional variant of the Spanish word frijol, meaning "bean"—a playful echo of Cloud Gate s own nickname, "The Bean".
