While Columbus, Ohio, has many a famous son (Buster Douglas! James
Thurber! Jeg Coughlin! me!), it also lays claim to many more through
Ohio State University, including artist Roy Lichtenstein, who studied
there during the 1940s. Thus in 1984 the city commissioned Lichtenstein
to create a 25-foot-tall version of his Brushstrokes in Flight
for display at Port Columbus International Airport. The airport
originally installed it outside the main entrance, but in 1998 the
airport moved it inside, where it remains today. We found this photo of
the original installation - amid a packed parking lot - on PhotOhio.org and thought it worthy of our parking lot scene series. What do you see here, carspotters.
