Public Art:  Upcoming Mural at The Monocle

Artist Ola Volo will be producing the most immersive mural that the Buffalo AKG Art Museum's Public Art Initiative has ever commissioned. The work will span three neighboring buildings along Hertel Avenue, with The Monocle at 1235 Hertel as the central anchor. Her imagery will spill over onto the adjacent buildings, creating an enveloping, immersive, and mesmerizing experience.
