] Noted Washington, DC artist Jim Sanborn worked in
] collaboration with the designers to create innovative art
] installations for Zola. His elements begin at the door
] with international espionage texts that glow on backlit
] acrylic panels lining the entrance corridor. Showcased in
] the back bar and private dining rooms, Sanborn's
] trademark paper works made from shredded CIA documents,
] are molded to reveal tiny traces of readable words.
]
] Similarly, Sanborn has taken KGB documents and turned
] them into brass sheeting. Lighted from behind, the
] screens become sconces, subtly projecting texts in the
] bar area. A grid of declassified intelligence documents
] from around the world hangs in the historic stairwell.
] The documents, in several languages, but showing the
] evidence of a censor's heavy black pen, are sandwiched
] between plexiglass panels and connected by steel wire to
] make a significant statement. Sanborn has numerous museum
] and gallery shows to his credit as well as public art
] commissions across the country, and notably, at CIA
] Headquarters in Langley, Virginia.

This restaurant next door to the Spy Museum in Washington, evidently has more work by Jim Sanborn, the sculptor who also created the Kryptos sculpture. I wonder if he used any of the same techniques, and might have left some Kryptos clues there?
