The land of Oz beyond the page continues here signage.

The Places of Oz signage. Working from an early draft of the script, the art department estimated they had to design and build over sixty sets for the film. Art director William Horning communicated to Jack Martin Smith. Smith painted watercolor sketches. Scenic art department head George Gibson used them to visualize the sets.

Our Journey to Oz continues at the Driehaus Museum. The exhibit closes in mid-March.

This room has amazing pieces of artwork. The artwork was painted by sketch artist Jack Martin Smith. I love all the little details in each piece.

And so 'Materialities' comes to a close. Nearly two years of work, alongside 14 extraordinary artists and the unwavering support of an incredible museum team. I cannot be more grateful to everyone who worked on the exhibition and also wrote about it! #driehausmuseum #art #materialities #chicago
