As a true laboratory for groundbreaking scholarship, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago offers an evening salon with artist Jeff Koons, collector Stefan Edlis, and critic James Yood. Hosted by Dr. Lisa Wainwright, Dean of Graduate Studies, the event is designed to encourage a dialogue around important topics in contemporary art practice.
In addition to examining the relationship between artist, collector, and critic, the evening's discussion will focus on the return of the Wunderkammern in contemporary collecting. Recalling the princely collections of the 17th Century, found objects and popular arts join painting and prints as "objects of wonder" in today's collections.
