The Art of Wall Removal


On September 10, 2001, the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center received the delivery of a wall of original Schulz art from the Colorado home of Polly and Stanley Travnicek. The wall arrived by special truck at a Schulz storage facility in Santa Rosa, where it was stored until its installation in the Museum.

You can see a slideshow of the Schulz mural removal here, and a movie (with jazzy music) of it here .

The Art of Building Removal
A 40,000 pound wall with a Keith Haring mural on it was left standing, while the rest of the building was demolished.
