fontastic on 53rd street



Since the Lever House font is the font that started my Fontastic! series on the blog, it surely deserves an inclusion here. Remember when the Lever House used to have this site-specific painting? I loved walking under that painting. Why did it have to be painted out? Yes, temporary art is beautiful, but I wish it would just become permanent. Read more about what it was and why it's gone.


The Lever House in March 2007. This site-specific painting, Robert Towne,
by Sarah Morris was on view from September 12, 2006-March 12, 2007.
I happened to be walking by the day they were painting it.
That was pretty neat. I really loved this painting.
