Dear Mark and all,

Good to see your posting on the wonders lurking in small airports.
BTW, what state in the U S of A is Hartsfield airport in? - for those
of us who don't know. Do you have any further information on this
exhibition that you might pass on, and perhaps a link to a website?

Hopefully our paths might cross sometime this year - are you planning
to go to the SoE conference in Fayetteville this year?

Cheers and best,

Robert Gosford

recommend two exhibitions that contain some of the most amazing and
excellent African sculpture I've seen. The first, on animal symbolism,
is at the entrance/exit to the T concourse, and runs through this
October. Some really fabulous representations of bird symbolism,
relevant to this e-group. Unfortunately, no individual labels for the
pieces (yet?). The other is modern Zimbabwean sculpture (mostly
stone), on the subterranean walking connection between concourses T
and A (you'll miss it if you take the train). Very large and
impressive pieces, many with environmental / nature themes. I couldn't
stop taking photos. This is a permanent exhibition.
