At the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity on the Riviera, where the frozen rosé slushies flow like, well, slushies, State Street Global's "Fearless Girl" has won several awards for confronting Wall Street's bull.

State Street commissioned the sculpture to nudge publicly-traded companies toward enlisting more women for their boards of directors. 

In these contentious times, State Street's ploy was sure to draw critics. They're outnumbered by "Fearless Girl" fans. Even the bull, who has been hanging around since the 20th century, is probably happy to have company.
