Art Institute of Chicago

A really wonderful museum with a fabulous collection. Turns out they're doing construction and closed a tiny bit of the museum, and are currently rotating some of my favorite art into storage (figures). She said to come back in 2009 when the new part opens and they'll have more room for art from what the museum already owns, which is probably currently in the basement somewhere gathering dust...

Either way, this picture by Sarah Hobbs was too cool for words. Click it to see it as big as I could find the file online.

wait wait wait, is that a picture of trash crumbled in a corner, or actual trash crumbled in a corner, I can't tell.

Haha. It's a picture of a photo that was in the museum. And not just trash, but Hershey wrapper trash and if you look carefully - the walls are painted with the chocolate. :D
