BUILDING 180 IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF THE MAGIC THAT CAN COME OUT OF HARD WORK, DEDICATION, AND A CAN-DO ATTITUDE. FOUNDERS MEREDITH WINNER AND SHANNON RILEY HAVE BUILT THE ARTS MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTING AGENCY FROM THE GROUND UP, AND ITS SERVICES HAVE GROWN TO INCLUDE ARTIST REPRESENTATION, ART CURATION, AND PRODUCTION AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT. THEY ARE THE WOMEN BRINGING THE VISION INTO REALITY, WITH A RECENT EXAMPLE COMING IN THE SHAPE OF A MASSIVE WHALE SCULPTURE NAMED ETHYL (CREATED BY BAY AREA-BASED ARTISTS JOEL DEAN STOCKDILL AND YUSTINA SALNIKOVA OUT OF TRASH TO RAISE POLLUTION AWARENESS). WE SAT DOWN WITH WINNER AND RILEY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT BUILDING 180’S PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
