The Museum of Contemporary Art’s twitter account pointed me in the direction of a “Time Out Chicago” article about their new identity, “We are here at the Museum of Contemporary Art.” The commenting is closed on the article, so I’m posting my response below. I’m looking forward to the artist working spaces in the 12×12 …
The Art institute of Chicago has this thing on their website where you can browse all their artwork. You can even make collections of their artworks to show to other people!
