June – July 27 – S. R. Crown Hall , IIT, 3360 S State St., Chicago, IL
Bortolami is pleased to announce the initiation of the sixth Artist/City project, Barbara Kasten/Chicago. Chicago-based artist Barbara Kasten is the summer resident of Illinois Institute of Technology’s S. R. Crown Hall. Kasten will activate Mies van der Rohe’s iconic building with a new series of sculptural constructions that will then become the subject of a series of photographs that dematerialize architectural space into abstraction.
