Inversion
was created in 2005 by artists Dan Havel and Dean Ruck. Two bungalows, which served as the Houston Art League's classrooms for 40 years, were scheduled for demolition to make way for a new studio building. Thankfully, Havel and Ruck had a crack at them first. Very cool.

Wow! This is just amazing. I mean, I have seen enough of compositions of seemingly useless material/trash before, but this one really stands out. I really love the functional part of it, that it has become an experience. Not just something to be observed from a distance. Taking a look at it for a minute, makes me think of some escape hatch into space, with the moon sitting there. Great job finding that one! And thanks for sharing of course! — Ciao! Marc

I am one of the artists who created "Inversion", pictured on your blog site in July 2007.
I would like to invite you and your blog audience to watch a short documentary film about the "Inversion" project created by Houston artist and filmmaker,
