Default Museum Exhibit: "Aluminum by Design: Jewelry to Jets"

Today's South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports an exhibit at the Wolfson-FIU museum in Miami Beach. The article says that when you walk into the museum, a huge aluminum car frame meets you. Its the 2000 Audi Quattro Space Frame.
The show traces the rise of aluminum from a rare metal used in luxury goods to the ubiquitous soda can.
Anybody been there? Paul, do you know anything about this?
Don't know if this has been posted previously--but this is the first I've heard about it.

Once so rare it adorns the top of the Washington Monument, now it's beer cans.
