We had to call someone quickly to fix the problem
Temperatures inside the museum exhibit needed to be 33 degrees in order for the sculpture to remain in a frozen State during the three-hour exhibit.
This exhibit was the first time that I ever hosted an important and famous artist.
I wanted everything to be absolutely perfect. I set up a special room with several different air conditioners that are made to cool to a lower temperature. These industrial air conditioners were expensive to rent, but I only needed them for a couple of hours on the night of the exhibit. The team of specialists came to the museum to install all of the specialty cooling equipment. Everything was working just fine when they left the building around 2 p.m. The sculpture arrived with her work about an hour later. We were starting to set things up when the artist noticed one of the sculptures seemed to be glossy. She asked me to double-check the temperature inside of the room. That’s when we realized that the temperature was 37 degrees instead of 33 degrees. I immediately contacted the company that installed the air conditioner machines. I was frantic and frazzled and I saw all of my hopes and dreams going down the toilet. Luckily they had someone on staff to come to our rescue, because I couldn’t have the sculptor put any of the items inside of the building until the temperature problem was fixed completely. I couldn’t start the show without the featured sculptor set up and ready to go. She was the main attraction on that particular night.
