Art / 337 Project
The 337 Project involved 144 street artists bringing all 42 rooms and every exterior surface of a soon to be demolished building in Salt Lake City to life, albeit briefly. Once it’s demolished, will the owners of the new condominiums care about the artworks ever so fleetingly impressed upon the land? Perhaps if they were to see Rich Leg’s amazing flickr set taken during his visit to the building they might spare the artists a thought. [see also 11 Spring Street]

The owner of the new condos( Adam Price ) is the same guy who made all this happen and demolishing the building is part of the art.
