The Library of Virginia faced the same problem exactly in
equipping its new building, now nearing completion. (If you
have to ask what a library is doing with studio paintings you
haven't been working in the real world - messy, untidy,
illogical - very long). We were all ready to solve it at the
hardware store, with chainlink fencing and slotted steel
pieces. This was the joint idea of myself and our "Owner's
Rep," an architect. Fortunately, though, we found units of a
"cage" in our present-and-soon-to-be-former building, which we
are getting dipped & then powder-coated. But the former idea is
still sound.
