Join the Szyk Symposium, a remarkable event titled "Arthur Szyk: Art - Propaganda - Memory" (Morning Session), where the enduring legacy of Arthur Szyk will be celebrated. Distinguished scholars and curators from across the country will come together to share their insights on Szyk's profound influence on art, politics, and culture. The morning session offers the opportunity to engage in stimulating conversations through various means. Attend in person at the prestigious Barone Campus Center's Dogwood Room, but remember that registration is required and seating is limited. Alternatively, you can stream the symposium live on thequicklive.com. This symposium is thoughtfully presented in conjunction with the captivating exhibition entitled "In Real Times. Arthur Szyk: Artist and Soldier for Human Rights," which will be available for viewing at the Bellarmine Hall Galleries from September 29 to December 16, 2023. Don't forget to explore "Szyk: The Interactive Experience" at the Walsh Gallery in the Quick Center for the Arts. This extraordinary exhibition showcases over 50 magnificent works by Arthur Szyk, the acclaimed Polish Jewish miniaturist and political cartoonist. Delve into his impactful political cartoons and poignant images that pay homage to the immense power and significance of democratic ideals. As a witness to the rise of totalitarianism in Europe, Szyk emigrated to America during World War II and made invaluable contributions to American society. His powerful artwork, featured on the covers of esteemed publications like Time and Collier's, shed light on the plight of European Jews and helped shape public opinion in favor of American engagement in the Second World War. Eleanor Roosevelt herself hailed Szyk's work as a formidable weapon against the perils of Hitlerism. Through his tireless advocacy for religious tolerance, racial equality, and human dignity, Szyk's art became the embodiment of resistance against Nazism and fascism. At a time when our communities grapple with issues of systemic racism and social upheaval, this exhibition serves as a vital platform for discourse on pressing matters of human rights and social justice.

Chicago&#39;s most worthwhile attractions&mdash;do your homework and you can spend a lot of time exploring. [The following appears unrelated and likely a separate topic:] Van Gogh, Seurat, Monet, Renoir, Gauguin, and some bronzes from the China Pavilion. This close encounter with art and history is incredibly satisfying and enriching.

It&#39;s worth visiting, but the price is a bit high, so it doesn&#39;t feel like great value for money. There&#39;s a slanted window inside that offers a downward view of the city, but that costs extra. Overall, it doesn&#39;t feel like good value for money.

The John Hancock Center is a place you can visit by appointment. Group tours in Chicago generally do not include activities in this place, but you can stop by here when you are traveling on your own to get to know some of the characteristics of American architecture and culture.

Grant Park is also a good place to visit for free. The most common people you see are locals doing outdoor sports. Running is very popular and can be seen at different times of the day. There are also some people walking their dogs.
