A year ago this month, I was driving from one meeting in Chicago and heading to my next one in Evanston. I was eastbound on Chicago Ave., and saw a snarl at the intersection with Michigan Ave. So instead of making a left turn there, I kept heading east. My plan was to circumvent the traffic snarl.
I knew the Museum of Contemporary Art was nearby, and that was exactly where I needed to turn left. Immediately I saw this enormous installation in front - MOTHERS, by Martin Creed. I parked the car right there and then, and slipped out to take a couple of photos.
My car stalled out, unfortunately, so I was going nowhere anytime soon. After a few failed attempts to jump-start it, I called a towing company. It was about two hours before I was on the way. But in the meantime, I came up with a film concept on that installation.
