The Flamingo Champagne Tower was one of the first such majestic neon installations in Las Vegas. But that’s the reason it became a discovery for me. Aren’t these bubbles familiar with a certain Polish project?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The bubbles so characteristic for the Flamingo Champagne Tower, created in the 1950s, remind me of “The Spray of Light” (“\u015awiat\u0142otrysk”), a neon lemonade in Warsaw. See this similarity?<\/p>\n

“The Spray of Light” is one of my favourite contemporary shining projects in Warsaw! The assumption of Maurycy Gomulicki, its author, was to create a monument to the joy of life. He did that. Every time I visit the K\u0119pa Potocka Park and look at a giant glass with an animated “orangeade” sparkling there, I smile quietly.<\/p>\n
