The Fort Worth Convention Center parking garage.
From Worth Going:
"Part artwork, part architectural enhancement and part musical composition, PhenomenArts, Inc. and Christopher Janney’s Parking in Color is Fort Worth’s most melodic public artwork and an addition to the artist’s Urban Musical Instruments series. A continuation of his exploration into the “hidden music” inherent in architecture, the artist combines architectural enhancement, sculpture and a unique customized sound environment creating a wholly unique parking environment.
A large-scale environmental artwork incorporated into an 11-story municipal parking garage, “Parking in Color” is located in the heart of downtown Fort Worth, and the latest example of Janney’s “Urban Musical Instruments” series, in which buildings become living structures as a result of interactive technology. The building’s façade is enlivened by five colored glass “fins”, in an Art Deco-inspired chevron configuration, that cast colorful shadows by day, allowing the sunlight to “paint” the building surface. At night, the colors are generated by a series of energy-efficient LED fixtures.
Parking In Color by Christopher Janney was commissioned by Fort Worth Public Art - a program of the City of Fort Worth administered by the Arts Council of Fort Worth and Tarrant County."
