Take Your Time: Olafur Eliasson
Through Sept 13
Do not miss the exhibition Take Your Time: Olafur Eliasson, what the Chicago Tribune calls “the MCA’s biggest event of the year...(featuring) a walk-in kaleidoscope and...a 360-degree spherical room that pulses color”—an intense multisensory experience by the Danish-Icelandic artist. Members at the Advocate level ($150) and above receive free MCA admission as a benefit of their membership.
