Ferguson Hartsfield (now Hartsfield-Jackson... should be Harriet
Tubman) International Airport Atrium, a cavernous space. There are four
columns around which 4 x 8' panels are arranged. There are I think 16
paintings in this show. When I went out to photograph it I was
astonished to see, across the way, a man leaning against my painting
like it was just part of the wall. I slipped into rage and ran toward
him but he was gone when I got there. I had been abit concerned about
the work being in that public of a space, people flying by with
suitcases swinging etc; but I went out & observed.... seemed ok.
Never would have predicted that. Dawn
is the character in robe against red in the second photo which the
airport purchased & hung in the International Concourse. All 90 x
30" canvases.
