More public art from here in Atlanta, a King Kong climbs a Eiffel tower by the wonderful junk/antique/oddity shop "Paris on Ponce." There is an enchanted door in Paris on Ponce that opens into a French cabaret, ranging from c. 1890 to 1930 (depending on when you open the door, the way the light is falling, the temperature of the air as it eddies around piled treasures. . .). It is a fey experience to come across this door after digging through piles of mannequin parts in fancy dress and discarded hardware to find just what you're looking for, or just whatever you can find. Magic lurks in strange places, it's always best to keep your eyes and mind open.
