All of this painting are in Andersonville at the white atic store.
This artist is Chicagoan.
this paiting is my favorite because he just uses writing to create shape.
He uses sentences about lake michigan for it , sentences about sky for the sky and sentence of building for the bulding, Because I love calligraphy I really love this one>

I 'm not inspired to find something specific for this writing.
Writing could sometimes became an art.
Of course in french it's more easy for me,

but today for all of us, just this sentence...

My computer doesn't want open some link.
So it was not easy to see videos.

Used industrial material that he had worked with



SEASON 2 - Stories- Kara Walker
When you show her exhibit, your own shadow is project in her wall work.



SEASON 3- Situations- Matthew Ritchie
He draws, and create with his computer some visual element from his modified drawing.


SEASON 4 - Protest - An My Le
She photographs war, it's her protesting work

Shadow hunting




I make a lot of picture for this hunting but I really like this old picture.
I made it las winter, when lake was just ice.
The skyline at the sunset time. Really soft because the sun was low in the sky.
Crazy.

I really like to walk in Chicago. So I often see all of the visual art during my walk. But I never saw the wall of Chagall. The map and the recording of the art loop audio tour was really helpfull to explore by a new way Chicago.
Something, I have to do, is to be in front of the Picasso Chicago between 4:00-5:00 to see the wings???Because I didn't understand the explanation, so I have to see by my own eyes...



This giant silver bean is a perfect miror to look the reflection of the sky and of the skyline of the michigan avenue.






The best way to explore this metallic and dynamic sculpture is to listen a classical concert. You can swim in it with music



All faces on the crow fontain are chicagoans.



This BP bridge is usefull to cross columbus.





Pictures make at the top of the Willis tower. An original view of this Red Flamingo with brighly color. For me it's more an abstration tan a flamingo.




At the south of Grand park, this sculpture with lot of legs is not in the art tour but it's art too.





Like this nice sculpture on south Michigan.









You imagination can complete this sculpture with a arrow...
It's representation about the first native of Chicago


















This peristyle is a door throught the past and the present : greec antic colonns
into a park celebrating the 20millenium.


Chagall rectangular wall -four seasons- with delicat colors, representing planets animals woman : in one word : life.













This women from Miro maybe dialog with the Picasso sculpture just in front of it.














This is a gift from Picasso to the people of Chicago.
It's hard to me to imagine it in its originally color...Orange...
