Client saves Portland Icon!

Carpet Diem!   The monumental collage by artist Nancy Wilkins has been saved!   This wonderful work of art has been exhibited at the Portland International Airport since 2014.    The Port of Portland recently put it up for sale and thankfully my client, Ben Goekjian has rescued it!   I guess you could say it’s an homage to the iconic carpeting throughout the airport which has enjoyed international notoriety.  Lockwood Carhart has made a special place for it in the new Auction house for Goekjian Properties.  Under construction now!
