now

Last thursday was crazy cold in Chicago and for some reason I chose to get a haircut and go to The Art Institute the same day. (free admission Thusday evenings!). I am pretty proud of myself for having the motivation to go see Konstantin Grcic’s work although if it wasn’t for Nadeem I probably wouldn’t have gone.

I am fairly familiar with Konstantin Grcic’s work even though I had no idea how to pronounce his last name. I think apart from the work that was being displayed I really enjoyed the “presentation”. The way the two dimensional materials such as sketches, process pictures and the inspirations were presented on the walls and on the floorboards along the walls reminded me of a studio desk setup (see the post below). I recommend everyone to go see it before January 24th. You can even sit on all the chairs to test them out in the middle “chilling” area.

Side Story: My hair was still damp when I left the hairdresser ($14 haircuts at Aveda Institute) and my curls froze to the point that I could break them! It was pretty cool.
