Openings: “The Boneyard Project : Return Trip” @ Pima Art & Space Museum

Posted on January 31, 2012 by sleepboy

Last weekend, the outdoor fields and indoor hanger Pima Art and Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona were the venues for the hand-painted vintage planes of The Boneyard Project: Return Trip. While the the DC Super 3 planes painted by How & Nosm, Nunca, and Retna, a C97 cockpit by Saner, a C45 plane by Faile, and a Lockheed VC 140 Jetstar by Andrew Schoultz were already stunning enough as centerpieces of the exhibition, when you include the nose cones, cockpits, and other plane segments painted by an all-star cast of artists (like Bast, Dan Colen, Trustocorp, Ron English, Shepard Fairey, Futura, Richard Prince, and Eric White just to name a few), the showing could arguably be one of the best and most unique of the year – and it’s only January.
