A seven-foot statue of Bob Marley has returned to Liverpool, bringing one of the world’s most recognisable cultural icons back to the heart of the city’s creative district.
The statue has been installed at the McKeown Rice Exhibition Space on Jamaica Street in the Baltic Triangle, where it is set to welcome visitors and celebrate the legacy of the legendary Jamaican musician.
Created by Liverpool-based artist Andrew Edwards, the sculpture pays tribute to Marley’s influence on music, culture and communities around the world.

Andrew Edwards is already well known across Liverpool for creating some of the city’s most recognisable public artworks.
His work includes the popular Beatles statue on Liverpool’s Waterfront, which has become a major attraction for music fans visiting the city.
The artist also created the Muhammad Ali statue, which previously took centre stage at the McKeown Rice Exhibition Space in 2017.
The return of the Bob Marley sculpture continues the space’s tradition of showcasing artwork celebrating globally recognised figures with strong cultural connections.
