Four major art projects for new KCI terminal revealed
The first of four major art projects for the new single terminal airport at KCI have been revealed.
More than 1,000 artists from around the world submitted inquiries after Kansas City announced an international search for artists. The city said the four works of art were chosen because they either reflected the wonder of travel or Kansas City history. The budget for artwork at KCI’s new terminal is $5.65 million. Kansas City’s single-terminal airport is expected to open on budget and on time in early 2023. “The fact that we’ve been through a pandemic over the last year and yet this project remains on time, on schedule, and on budget is a testament to the good work of the team,” said Justin Meyer with the KC Aviation Department. You can see the renderings of the art projects in the gallery below. Entitled "Molten Swing" Entitled "The Air up There" Entitled "Ornithology" Entitled "Fountain of Resonance" "Molten Swing" looks kind of like a mosaic dog or cat to me, it might look cool though but not sure what to make of it at this point. "The Air up There" simply looks like some lights on the ceiling, again it might look better when you're actually there I hope. "Ornithology" reminds me of those attacking creatures in the Pitch Black movie. You just knew one of the artwork they chose would have a WTF moment and this is it. "Fountain of Resonance" I approve of this one. Thoughts? https://fox4kc.com/news/art-projects...inal-revealed/ |

I assume that's two very different issues, potentially.
The cell phone lot and arrival issues is locals picking up locals. The draft is having enough shuttles, ubers, and rental cars available... and then having the rental car staff and security lanes and so forth to deal with all of the departures. |

Modern art is truly an abomination Zach. That Raiders guy doesnt write long paragraphs like yours truly but what he says is always firey firey truth. Educate yourself, Zach.

It's always funny watching Zach try to dab on rednecks like he's some highfaultin metropolitan.

I live in a highly metropolitan trendy city full of millilennials and Gen-Z’rs. I stand out like a sore thumb. I get looks like who let grandpa out of the nursing home to disturb our vibe.

Last time I was in downtown St Pete, I went to a farmer's market and to a jazz night that (to my surprise) looked like a retirement home dance-off at the Floridian Social.... so yeah, that's probably not it.
