Glier's portfolio featured in The Ritz Hotel Project, a collaborative exhibition organized by COLAB group in conjunction with the D.C.-based Washington Project for the Arts. The groups hoped to produce an event similar to COLAB's notorious Times Square Show (1980), meaning to provoke a greater consciousness of the political potentials of visual art in the nation's capital. Participating artists broke into a dilapidated building at 920 F St. where they turned the abandoned hotel into a temporary museum. After a two-week run, District officials succeeded in closing the show for safety violations, and condemned the property.
