Monday in spotlight: Leo Villareal

For me, the lucky one living in San Francisco, I am quite impatient to finally see Leo Villareal's massive public art project soon. If you have not heard, the whole Bay Area bridge has already been 'decorated' in LED lights and it promises to be quite the spectacular show of lights.

Last week I attended the artist's lecture at SFMoma and among others he explained his attempt to bring natural, celestial and urban elements into this project. Plus it's like an urban picknick, said Leo, where strangers are brought into conversations when viewing this massive play of lights.

And have you checked out his other work? Quite interesting: abstract and attempting to be in tune with urban environment..
