CONNERSMITH is delighted to announce LEO VILLAREAL'S monumental LED sculpture, The Bay Lights, in San Francisco, CA. The Bay Lights will go live on March 5th, 2013 at 8:30pm PST and be on view through 2015. Villareal's awe-inspiring Bay Lights sculpture will transform the western span of the San Francisco Bay Bridge in to the world's largest LED light sculpture. Measuring over a mile and a half long, with 25,000 LED nodes affixed to nearly five miles' worth of vertical suspension cables, Bay Lights is eight times the scale of the Eiffel Tower's 100th Anniversary lighting. The Bay Lights will be seen over 50 million people in the Bay Area with many more viewing it online nightly through 2015.
