Update - Salt Lake City International - Installation Of 'The Canyon'


Installation of a major art piece of #TheNewSLC—The Canyon—by artist Gordon Huether, spanning 362 ft. with 2.5 acres of tweave fabric,
7 miles of aluminium tubing & 500 fins. 24 templates are used to place 2,000 brackets & clamps to hold the tubing on which the fins are placed.

Pre Art Installation - The main hall, or 'Canyon,' or 'Crossroads of the West.' (All the airport managers who were present on the tour had a different name for it.).
Eventually the escalators right under the American Flag will take people down to the central tunnel, where they will board a people mover to the North and Far North concourses.

Pre Art Installation - The same hall, but now looking south toward the unsecured areas.
