Out with Blight, in with Art -- coming true?

So in April 2008, I had this idea to brighten the city with art using the many illegal billboards as a canvas.

glad to see the MAK Center for Art and Architecture is making a similar Los Angeles wide project

The MAK Center for Art and Architecture at the Schindler House is pleased to announce its most ambitious project to date: How Many Billboards? Art in Stead. This large-scale urban exhibition debuts 23 new works by leading contemporary artists, presented simultaneously on billboards throughout Los Angeles for seven weeks from February 5 through March 26, 2010.

I'm looking forward to seeing these next year.
