#JustGoSeeIt, Art Design Chicago
“Italian wedding cake meets seahorse water shuffle,” reads a cryptic light blue poster with huge yellow lettering. “It’s definitely a curvy, metally, origamiish something or other,” reads another—this one is intense orange with purple-ish, equally big fonts. Don’t know what I’m talking about? In a witty, curiosity-building campaign, the yearlong Art Design Chicago initiative of the Terra Foundation for American Art invites the curious to a scavenger hunt across Chicago’s most iconic public art, using the hashtag #JustGoSeeIt. (I’m not going to spoil it by saying more). Look for posters around the city or on their website—the perfect place to find out about design-related shows, events and exhibitions in town.
