Description
Although this is named Crystal Mountain it reminds me of a city in chaos. This sculpture is found in Terminal D at Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) airport. Ever since Terminal D opened in 2005, we have dubbed it "the fun terminal". At the time it opened, the state of the other terminals was dismal in comparison, with no upgrades since the airport opened in 1974. In contrast, Terminal D was light and airy and even had lots of wonderful artwork such as this Crystal Mountain, sculpted by Dennis Oppenheim. It stands 30' by 45'. The crystal-inspired work has an arched tunnel through the center (which can been seen here as the blue glow in the lower left of the image) wide enough for two-way pedestrian traffic. The installation is part of DFW�s Art Program which features 30 artists from around the world.

I guess I'm never in Terminal D when I fly through DFW - will have to make a point of checking it out next time. This is really cool.
