The curator of an avant-garde art museum experiences both professional and personal crisis as he mounts a controversial new exhibit. This thought provoking film is a dark satire on the pretensions of the modern art world.
The 1501 Ellinwood Street library building is the realization of a longheld dream of the library board, staff and community partners. Located in the heart of downtown Des Plaines, the four story, 82,000 square foot building represents the community's commitment to reading, lifelong learning, and a center for family activities. A grand central staircase and large windows provide a wealth of natural light and illuminate the building at night.
