OPEN SEASON ON THE DISCIPLINES

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Design disciplines often bounce around words hinting at the experimentation with practices beyond their expertise: multidisciplinary, collaborative. And it is this idea of expansion beyond ones discipline that Outside Design wants to explore. From now until December 19, the exhibit will be ondisplay at the Sullivan Galleries at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago as a collateral event to the first Chicago Architecture Biennial. Landscape architecture, architecture, art, materials, agriculture, biology, and more collide in laboratories installed on site that change throughout the period of their installment. Using frogs to measure oxygen levels in buildings, reclaimed materials for human and animal cohabitation, and a compact self-sustaining system, these installments experiment with creating fluid movement between neighboring professions.

If you are attending the 2015 ASLA Annual Meeting and EXPO, be sure to stop by during the Sullivan Galleries open hours, TuesdaySaturday, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. For more information and a list of upcoming exhibit events, please visit here.
