The best way to hang artwork unfortunately involves putting holes in the
walls. It's much cleaner and safer and looks better in the long run. I
hate those ugly rods going up to the ceiling. If you use florite hangars
the holes will be very minimal. You can get them from United suppliers in
New York.
