Chicago is home to a rich and growing ecology of puppet artists whose work bridges disciplines and communities of makers. This sampling of works by local artists is intended to challenge expectations about puppetry and inspire makers from all disciplines. Take the rare chance to look closely at sculptural works usually only seen in motion at a distance. Celebrate material and formal invention, trace networks of collaboration, and discover some of the exciting questions and possibilities that are animating puppet art today.
