Minotaurs galore

If you want to take a trip back in time to 6th grade mythology lectures, look no further than a jaunt to Chicago’s National Hellenic Museum.  This internationally touring exhibit is currently in Chicago through May and includes installations, figurines and sculptures.  Next to each piece is an information plate with an explanation of what that specific monster represented.  All the items, as well as the impressive 10-foot high Minotaur were formed from illustrations by the Beetroot Design Group book titled, “The Misunderstood Monsters of Greek Mythology”.  Come visit and become enamored with these neo-black figurines!
