MCA Instameet

I never posted about this but I just discovered it. I attended an event around Murakami's exhibition last fall with 400 guests. My Instagram was featured in the post. Yippee!

From the MCA: 

On June 22, we welcomed more than 400 of our friends from the Instagram community when we again paired with @igerschicago to bring the world of Takashi Murakami to the social media masses. We welcomed Instagrammers from throughout Chicago to an empty MCA so they could explore the galleries freely. We also provided Murakami merch for selfies, MCA artist-guided tours, and a special all-MCA Bingo game—post 5 photos in a stack post relating to the series of clues to get a Bingo—with photo-focused prizes from the MCA Store. Below are some of our favorites. Follow Instagramers Chicago to find out about their next meet.

MCA - Eternal Youth

I have yet to make a visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art...until today. They have several exhibitions going on but I was most intrigued by their own titled 'Eternal Youth'. 

My favorite hands down were the photographs from Larry Clark's kids. Rosario Dawson and Chloe Sevigny introduced to us and the film was graphic as well as shocking. A coming of age film indeed this film showed a darker side of kids transitioning to adults. It is evident that coming up during the over sexualized 1990s was more radical than most realize.
