Mask art
I live in a town just south of Salt Lake City, Utah. When I moved here in 1975 it was rural; there were 6,000 residents, and now there are over 100,000. Our current mayor is trying to put us on the map; we're building a soccer stadium for a pro soccer team, and hizzoner is trying to land us a deal for a major arts complex.
The other day I got this extraordinary mailer from the city. It's a fancy large brochure with these four exceptional-looking masks, attempting to sell us citizens on the proposed arts complex. To find this sort of thing in Utah, especially coming from a municipal government, is more than extraordinary…it's unheard of. I love these masks and want you to see them. The artist isn't credited. Mask #1 can be used either way so I'm showing you both versions.
