A provocative news alert from the folks at the Pittsburgh Arts Watch:
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.The old Pittsburgh Opera building at Penn Avenue and 8th Street has been torn down and replaced with a parking lot. It is understood a fountain will be placed at the edge of Penn Ave.
There is still Cell Phone Disco though

The Pittsburgh Art BlogThe Pittsburgh Art Blog features selected pittsburgh artists and upcoming exhibits with photos from the artists and galleries. since the major press outlets do not go beyond a directory listing of exhibits, blogs are needed to promote pittsburgh artists and their work. the blog also calls attention to the inferiority complex of pittsburgh art and how it's perpetuated by the major players in town. Started on August 20,2007. pittsburgh area galleries and art venues are listed at the sister site www.PghGalleries.com.
the blog and website are volunteer projects from fine art photographer and pittsburgh artist advocate rick byerly.
