In addition to the 120 hand painted treatments on traffic signal boxes around the city, the Outside the Box program has also created two synthetic wraps to be used on multiple boxes. This box is wrapped in the distinctive retro-inspired work of Gary Taxali. If you're a fan of the style and want to see more, the gallery in First Canadian Place is hosting "Unfamous: The Work of Gary Taxali" until January 27th. The gallery is free to visit but hours are limited to Monday to Friday, 11 am to 3 pm. On January 12th the artist himself will be on hand for a tour of the exhibition.
