Flag design representing art & design of Chicago
Supported by the Design Museum of Chicago, Art Design Chicago, & Terra Foundation of American Art
Art Design Chicago, the Design Museum of Chicago & the Terra Foundation for American Art commissioned select artists to celebrate Chicago design — past, present, and future — on flags that flew during a citywide series of exhibitions and events that highlighted the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.
The design centers on the dimensions of the classic Chicago Window, which reflects a mishmash of ambiguous rigid and fluid forms representing the interplay of built and natural elements in our environment. The playful shapes in the foreground embody the energies of the people that make up our communities.
