Alex Chitty: They Will Bloom Without You
@ Elmhurst Art Museum
150 S Cottage Hill Ave, Elmhurst, IL 60126
Opening Saturday, November 18th, from 11AM - 5PM
On view through Sunday, January 7th
The Elmhurst Art Museum (EAM) proudly announces a site-specific exhibition titled They will bloom without you by the Chicago-based artist Alex Chitty November 18 – January 7. The exhibition title is a reference to Chitty’s observations of flowers, in particular lilies, and how their daily bloom takes place independent of an audience. The lilies also gesture toward the designer and architect Lilly Reich who collaborated with Mies van der Rohe, but is often omitted from the credits of their collaborations.
