Did You Catch That New Art Show In Terminal 3?
"Airport terminals are increasingly the go-to places for contemporary art. Today's mega terminal continues to morph toward something more akin to the modern upscale mall, theme park or play world. In all of its mammoth made-up quality, it's a world existing almost entirely apart from the host country, a kind of glowing, Never Never Land of a non-place. Yet it is in constant contact with other airports worldwide, in a private world of high functioning connectivity. It is, of course, the perfect mirror to the world of the contemporary artist, now with studios, dealers and backers worldwide." Toronto Star 07/12/07
