House of Cards was a highly successful site-specific public art installation featuring the artwork of over 20 local Houston artists on 126 oversized playing cards. This monumental light and sound piece was created by the Israel-based Design Studio OGE Group.  WAG ran an open call for regional artists to submit their designs, from which the final artworks were selected.
