Description
One of the world’s most remarkable outdoor art treasures lies hidden in plain sight along Chicago’s Lake Michigan waterfront. Lakefront Anonymous: Chicago’s Unknown Art Gallery tells the story of the thousands of stone carvings by unknown creators that line the city’s shore but have remained mostly invisible to the public. All together it represents a spectacular collective work of art that is finally getting its due, with more than 200 pictures and a text that tells the story of the carvings, the carvers, and the shoreline where they worked. You can find more information about the carvings here.
