While visiting the Garfield Conservatory this past weekend, we were intrigued by a lot of stone sculptures about the grounds - the granite forms and curves were a nice change from the usual straight and steely nature of public art. Turns out that the Chapungu exhibit will be at the Chicago Botanic Garden too. May 31st is the opening celebration, including sculpting workstops and a fireside chat (!) with the artists.
