Thanks for the tip. Sounds like a good idea for a mini vacation to Chicago. Do you know if cameras are allowed? I would guess not, but it would be nice to get some photos of the sculptures.

Just went the other day, some interesting items including a large vase form that incorporates shellacked shoots. Photography is prohibited. I had a camera along and the one guard there had to cover a lot of space, so it is possible to document something for personal reference. No publication, no posting, no problem? The organizing exhibitor would like you to buy his book. There is a catalogue available at the exhibit, and a free pamphlet with some photos.
