Florida Highwaymen Paintings at Orlando International Airport

When the Orlando International Airport’s new $2.9 billion Terminal C opens on September 20, 2022, it will do so featuring numerous technological and design innovations revolutionizing the passenger experience. The most visible of those will be its interactive digital “Moment Vault” centering the main atrium, as well as “Windows on Orlando,” a video triptych 32-feet-tall spanning 110 feet. Florida Highwaymen paintings at Orlando International Airport will be shown across the massive display.

“Windows on Orlando” features panoramic views into live action scenes representative of the area such as shorebirds feeding in a natural area, sailboats bobbing in a Titusville marina, the impending launch of a Space X rocket. Three paintings by the Florida Highwaymen will also be shown among the 75 or so slides which will rotate on a loop throughout the day in Terminal C.

The original artworks come from Lance Walker, an Orlando-area super collector of original Florida Highwaymen paintings who previously loaned works to a Highwaymen exhibition at the Orlando Museum of Art. The Florida Highwaymen paintings at Orlando International Airport were painted by Mary Ann Carroll, Roy McLendon, and Willie Daniels. They were chosen for representing iconic images of natural Florida as well as for their vibrant colors and how well they fit the screens’ formatting.
