Anna Kunz: Eidolon

September 10, 2010 - August 2011

Anna Kunz, Eidolon, 2010

The first art-banner commission in the Smart Museum's Threshold series is Ediolon, a large vinyl collage by Chicago-based artist Anna Kunz.

Commissioned by the Smart and designed by Kunz specifically for the Museum's sculpture garden, the collage banner reflects the forms and shapes the artist observed while visiting, and uses a color palette that the artist captured on site and filtered through the Pantone iPhone app.

Presented in Vera and A.D. Elden Sculpture Garden.
