a selection of sculptures hanging on a wallSuggestions of Gravity/Into Sunrise

January 21 — February 16

Into Sunrise is an exhibit of acrylic paintings. Saturations of yellow seem like an allowance of positivity, and like walking through prairies full of summer flowers humming with insects in the breeze. These works layer textures and colors over each other until a surface of bright, warm yellow is created to represent clarity, happiness and light, built on layers of deep experience.

Suggestions of Gravity is a multidisciplinary exhibit of found-object sculptures, abstract drawings and land art documentation, all inspired by immersions in the Midwest landscape.

fleeting posterFranz Schulze: Artist and Scholar

October 1-31 

This exhibition features Franz Schulze paintings from the 1950's, portraits for which he became better known, and is a celebration of a scholar who wrote the definitive biographies on architects Mies van der Rohe and Philip Johnson, a guide to Chicago's landmark structures, and a book entitled Fantastic Images: Chicago Art Since 1945 that brought the Chicago Imagist artists to the forefront of the art world. Franz Schulze was a beloved professor of studio art and art history at Lake Forest College from when he began his teaching career in 1952 to long after he retired in 1991.
