Phoenix Airport Museum Welcomes New Museum Exhibition
Explore the beauty and allure of the American West through the new Phoenix Airport Museum exhibition, Geology of Geometry. For more than 50 years, Arizona artist Merrill Mahaffey has hiked, climbed and rafted his way through immense rivers and canyons to fuel his creative energy. Taking these experiences back to his studio, Mahaffey creates paintings to further study intricate rock formations, geologic layers and abstracted water reflections. As an avid outdoors man with a lifelong interest in geology, Merrill Mahaffey has a deep connection to these landscapes. View the artwork and a short documentary video about the artist in the Terminal 3, level 4 gallery (post-security).
