House of Cards by OGE Group

May 1, 2020 @ 6:00 AM - 5:00 PM

I’m beyond ecstatic to announce my work has been chosen to be a part of Discovery Green’s spring installation, House of Cards!

House of Cards is a public-art piece by Israel-based design studio OGE Group consisting of 126 oversized playing cards, each of which features a unique piece of artwork. During the day, the cards’ crisp white lines and colorful images will dazzle. At night, the structure will be illuminated to create the illusion of the house of cards rising, collapsing and being rebuilt.

Available to view: May 1 through Aug. 2.

According to the artists, “the card house refers to an important structure in society, one that is built by people and their relationships.” This artist statement reflects the growth and development of Discovery Green!

The Discovery Green Conservancy invites you to be a part of this special installation by buying tickets to the inaugural benefit preview: Blanc on the Green. Guests are invited to dress in white for a casually elegant evening of art, music, strolling performances, photo opportunities, desserts and the official lighting of House of Cards. All proceeds benefit the park and help ensure quality free programming all year long. Buy your tickets now discoverygreen.com/blanc.

Twenty Houston artists were selected to have their designs included to represent the city as the installation continues to tour the world.
