The music of Bryan Adams, some Christmas lights and the imagination of one artist have come together to form a unique display adorning the Polygon Gallery in Lower Lonsdale. Artist Kevin Schmidt has strung more than 214 strings of Christmas lights to the exterior of the building, with the lights programmed to dance and flash in time with his own re-recordings of North Shore legend Bryan Adams’ 1984 album (and the piece’s namesake) Reckless. The lights and music will be turned on every day from 4 till 11 p.m. and the display is expected to run until the spring.
