renwick

The reopening of the Smithsonian's Renwick Gallery has been a big hit.  The buzz was that the Wonder exhibit was well worth a visit and it was even more awesome in person.  The different exhibitions each took over the room it was housed in and the use of materials was amazing.  
Those white natural looking sculptures are made from stacked paper cards!

This artist created a stick pod at Brown many years ago, and this one was just as neat to explore.  One of the coolest parts of the exhibits was how you could get right up next to them.

The artist that created this Chesapeake Bay watershed inspired creation of glass beads is from Toledo, Ohio.  The glass marbles crawled all over the walls and even up to the ceiling.  That chandelier was very interactive and the lights created a show.
