Airport Art

Some airports have exhibits of art -- murals, cases of material, applied art to building's structures -- and some airports are architecturally the art themselves. Here is a slice of Chicago's ceiling.
 

While Waiting

I saw this outside the gate while waiting for my Denver to Chicago flight yesterday. Heck, what is going on? These folks we just outside the gate door, a stones throw from the luggage trucks below. Such a strange scene, vast land in the back. Complete with gas fire pit, by the way. What next? 
 

Lest You Think

Should you think I lead that glorious life of travel to exotic places, I want you to take in my latest "sleepover" in the Detroit Airport. Delayed flight means my connection goes out the next day. So, here's a view, spooky for sure, of the way to the tunnel to access the B Concourse. I slept elsewhere, eeeek. 

Room With a View

A brief walk through the Chicago airport made me realize 1) they spend a lot of time and money giving people windows in an airport and 2) rectangles made good patterns.
 

Grid Work

A well known architect, though one who's name I can't connect to the thought, said that window grids separated the view into distinct sections, each with their own composition. This struck me as I walked to the Rochester airport's ramp parking lot. Must have been those grids.
 

Airport Art

Yesterday, I took in the art before checking my gate, my connections, my lost bags. Atlanta airport has a great way of presenting public art. Yuriko Yamaguchi's work "Georgia On My Mind" was a wall of bronze cast pieces. After taking it in I headed to my flight schedule.
