Seven Magic Mountains and Welcome to Las Vegas Sign / Private Tour

Duration

2 hours 30 minutes

Overview

Hey, what can we say Nevada is an inspiring place. Renowned Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone certainly felt the magic of Nevada’s mighty Mojave when creating his public land art installation in cooperation with the Nevada Museum of Art and Art Production Fund, building seven three-story, day-glo towers sourced from the surrounding desert. The location is exactly what Rondinone was looking for, physically and symbolically between the natural and artificial—the natural expressed by mountain ranges and Jean Dry Lake, and the artificial represented by nearby I-15 and the constant flow of traffic between Los Angeles and Vegas.
