MCA Talk: Mark Dion and David Rockwell
@ Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago
220 E. Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611
Opening Monday, February 27th, from 6PM - 7PM
Part of our “Architecture Is Art . . . Is Architecture Art?” talk series, co-presented with the Chicago Architecture Foundation.
The lines between art and architecture are further blurred when artist Mark Dion meets up with architect and designer David Rockwell (Rockwell Group). Dion is known for his taxonomic installations that explore how we impose order into our understanding of nature and the world around us; Rockwell’s designs are installations in themselves, drawing deep connections to theater and set-building. With noted architectural commentator and moderator Reed Kroloff, these two highly regarded practitioners discuss the issues and inspirations fueling their work and how they defy the disciplines of art and architecture.
