Cabinet of Curiosities & Impossibilities, 2023 – 2024

“Cabinet of Curiosities & Impossibilities” originally grew out of a group art exhibition in 2009 at the former headquarters of MOA, a spacious indoor gallery in Englewood, and in 2011 was later interpreted into a semi-permanent and favorite exhibit among patrons for over a decade. In 2022 MOA closed their indoor galleries and moved their headquarters to its recently renovated Marjorie Park location at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre and the artifacts and relics were put into storage. Hanzon will include several of the original objects in the reimagined experience, as well as many new treasures and stories.

Made of contemporary hand-blown glass by Corey Silverman & Horace Marlowe, supported by stainless steel cable, bars and fittings, lucite and vinyl spacers, and various chrome parts. No two pieces of glass are alike.
