Cool off with Paintings Below Zero

I took these pictures back in the days before I had a blog and wanted to share them now that the hottest days of summer have finally arrived in Chicago. I hope that looking at these will feel like a dip in the pool, or a trip to your grocer's freezer. In the winter of 2008, artist Gordon Halloran created a series of site-specific pieces displayed at Millennium Park. These slabs of frozen pigments made for a visually appealing abstract mural in ice.
