Airport hosts art installation for SXSW travelers
Friday, March 17, 2017 by Nina Hernandez
Being at the airport is rough anytime, really, but that’s particularly true for the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport during South by Southwest – which just happens to coincide with spring break. Thanks to a partnership between the consul general of Mexico in Austin and the Museum of Popular Art in Mexico City, South by Southwest travelers will be treated to an exhibit of “fantastical hand-made creatures” made by artists from our neighbor to the south. Find the exhibit between gates 7 and 11. Those who aren’t leaving the city anytime soon can find an example, “Lobo del aire” by Ricardo Linares Garcia, in the city’s announcement from yesterday afternoon.
