Hidden Parking Garage Art (4 pieces)

Shepard Fairey's team

While we're all used to seeing contemporary art hang on gallery or museum walls or even on the street, we usually don't come face-to-face with it in unexpected places like this! The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas wanted to change that. Their “Wallworks” art project brought together four figures in contemporary art, Shepard Fairey, Shinique Smith, RETNA and Kenny Scharf, and asked them to create a site specific work in the hotel's parking garage!

What a great way to not only celebrate the arts but surprise people, making them feel as though they're discovering something hidden, unique and special.

Way to go, Cosmopolitan! As you know, we love your lobby, too.
