Why It Matters for Atlanta Professionals
It is a $10,000 public-art commission on a Dunwoody landmark, with two Atlanta-based artists among the finalists and a public unveiling Nov. 21. For business owners in the Perimeter area, it is also a reminder of what a well-placed wall can do for a corridor's identity.
