One year ago today, the Art at Large team ventured to New York City to celebrate the opening of the Top of the Rock Experience, as brilliantly reimagined by THG Creative and their client Tishman Speyer. The thought and consideration that went into enhancing how visitors experience this iconic landmark space, as well as the level of expertise brought forth by all parties, make this experience a destination like no other.
Through Shannon Associates, THG connected with Sally Comport to conceptualize and create more than 304-linear-feet of hand-painted murals that convey the visual history of Rockefeller Center, keeping with the artistry of Rockefeller Center's existing one-of-a-kind public art collection.
To echo the gold details throughout the site, Comport enlisted fellow Art at Large artist Lindsay Lowery to gild the murals with 23k gold Art Deco style "sparks"—reinforcing the concept of Rockefeller Center as a timeless spark of creativity, innovation, and imagination.
Look behind the scenes, learn more about the projects, and see the full list of collaborators on our Top of the Rock special project page at ArtatLargeinc.com. And go experience the thrill of Top of the Rock yourself, including The Beam and Skylift experiences!
