Art in unusual places: The Manifest Destiny Billboard Project

Regular readers know that one of the biggest trends in conceptual art is an unexpected site that brings art to people, instead of the other way around. The latest example is The Manifest Destiny Billboard Project, a series of artist-produced billboards that unfold for drivers along US Interstate 10, the highway that crosses the United States from Florida to California. The artsy goal is to portray the American fantasy of Westward expansionism by creatively interacting with the landscape itself.
