Description
In collaboration with AREA15, the immersive art, event and entertainment district in Las Vegas, Fisher Brothers, a fourth-generation real estate owner and operator with significant holdings in Las Vegas, today announced its acquisition of a Boeing 747 jumbo jet. The iconic structure was recently constructed as a large-scale art installation for Burning Man festival by artist Ken Feldman of Big Imagination. When it appeared in the Black Rock desert in 2016 it was widely regarded as one of the most ambitious art installations ever due to the sheer size and scope of the structure.
