The conversation opens with remarks by curator Jonathan Katz on Frank Lloyd Wright’s demolished Larkin Building, designed as an innovative workplace. The panel that follows will delve into the importance of Chicago’s lost Garrick Theatre —and the results of the quest and failure to save it– with curators John Vinci and Tim Samuelson and author Daniel Bluestone, all contributors to the publication, Reconstructing the Garrick: Adler and Sullivan’s Lost Masterpiece. Moderated by Wrightwood 659 Curatorial Consultant Gina Pollara.
