Chicago for the summer

I'm in Chicago for the (northern) summer of 2016.
I've joined the Art Institute, which I'm visiting often (not enough). I'm improvising mostly.
If you'd like to see whaat I'm seeing, then visit my instagram page.
Here's a Monet, a Cornell, a Chagall, a Van Gogh and a few paperweights , just to whet your appetite.

Biennale Sydney highlights - Newtown

Headstones at the cemetery at St Stephen's Church in Newtown are being covered as part of the Sydney Biennale. Very ghostly.

And at night

So'me of the headstones' inscriptions are coming through (because people touch them? because they just do? who knows?)

Chippendale and Redfern Biennale

A wall covered with thousands of tiny mirrors

A tent city

Stonework, not part of the biennale as such!

A book made of a Chinese dictionary (exhibited at the White Rabbit Gallery in Chippendale)

And a sure-to-deteriorate emperor's robe from newspapers, also at the White Rabbit

A map-like drawing on perspex which doesn't photograph so well: it was magical - as your eyes move, the sculpture moves: White Rabbit

White Rabbit Again: shell like structures made from paper, ever repeating

And this year's fashion accessory: a leather tank (full size: takes up a whole room, and smells strongly of leather, of course). White Rabbit

Massive mosquito coils with poetry / scriptures inscribed on them, at the Mortuary station
