Street artists Plastic Jesus and Joshua “Ginger” Monroe collaborated on the sculpture.
Visitors have been posing with the Weinstein statue, which is significant given how the producer has been shunned from the Hollywood community since reports of sexual harassment and abuse emerged last year.
Dozens of women, including Salma Hayek, Lupita Nyong’o and Uma Thurman have been vocal about Weinstein’s inappropriate behaviour towards them.
