I was ambivalent in the first place. Paint fades fast in these parts. Now we clear the decks for a much better choice which is LED lighting. Not that that's on the agenda. But it should be.

FRONT Triennial not going ahead with towering mural on blank wall overlooking Public Square

CLEVELAND, Ohio — The FRONT Triennial project to have internationally renowned artist Julie Mehretu paint a soaring abstract mural on the 21-story Standard Building overlooking Public Square in downtown Cleveland is not moving forward.

 

Complications, including the sale of the building, a property converted from offices to apartments by Cleveland-based Weston Inc., delayed the mural project to the point of no return.

I’m not upset by this. If you want to do something with that wall, that is what projection lighting is for.

Lighting would be nice, but would that work during the day?  Maybe they could hang banners on the wall similar to what is done on the SHW wall.  That way, the banners could be changed periodically instead of having a depiction of a migraine on the wall for several years.
