Each rack reflects its location. A guitar-shaped rack named Hipster has been placed in Brooklyn's trendy Williamsburg neighborhood. A rack that looks like a dollar sign is in the Wall Street area.
Byrne was one of the founders of the music group Talking Heads in the 1970s. He's been publishing and exhibiting his artworks over the last decade.
