Globe-trotting street artist ABOVE (interviewed) just had an opening in Melbourne, Australia. By all reports, it was a huge success. He even had three lovely ladies dressed as air stewardesses, complete in ’50s Pan Am flight attire. They greeted the “passengers” and handed out Above airlines boarding passes. As if that wasn’t enough, a telephone booth was imported from London, and there were professional Argentinian dancers doing the tango too. The exhibit runs through July 14th. [Check out the photos]
