One of the pieces on display at WaMu this weekend: Kevin Todora's Get Bent
Christina Rees and Thomas Feulmer, organizers of last weekend's Modern Ruin show inside the shell of the former Washington Mutual box on Greenville Ave. slated for razing, send word: The event has caught the attention of American Public Media's Marketplace producers. Matter of fact, Christina spoke with host Kai Ryssdal for tonight's show, which airs on KERA-FM (90.1) at 6:30 p.m. But if you'd like to hear the show right now, well, no need to wait. A couple more photos after the jump.
