Lee Opening at LivingRoom Tonight

By Lauri Apple in Arts & Entertainment on Jul 16, 2009 6:20PM

Tonight marks the LivingRoom Gallery's opening reception for Rosemary Lee's It happens that the stage sets break down, an installation of drawings and soft sculptures that focuses on "the malleability of memory." And by "malleable," we mean pieces such as "Reconstruct" -- a collection of gray, fabric building blocks that can be stacked and re-stacked to make brand-new objects. Lee is an Art Institute of Chicago grad who has had pieces shown at Phaiz and Hyde Park Art Center, among other places.

In addition to serving up Lee's visual treats, LivingRoom will also be offering its visitors some Fresh Strawberry Angel Food Cake ice cream from Nice Cream (mango sorbet for the vegans) and Half Acre beer (courtesy of Green Grocer Chicago).

LivingRoom Gallery, 1530 W. Superior, tonight, July 16, 6 p.m - 9 p.m. Lee's show runs through August 22
