On this week’s Bad at SportsCenter we chatter about with Lan Tuazon. A Chicago-based sculptor, Tuazon discusses the culmination of her 10 year trilogy, Shift in the Order of Things, recently concluding at the Hyde Park Art Center. From Michael Reynolds’ Earthship to Alfred Heineken’s brick bottles, we unpeel a metaphorical onion to reveal the genius at the center of this epic series of “documentation sculpture”. Also, Jesse dubs the nickname “Chi Chi” for this human settlement we call Chicago. Call in and let us know your thoughts.

This week’s Bad at SportsCenter guest is Chicago expat Aaron Delehanty, a painter/sculptor and “dioramacist” based in Rochester, NY. Taking from his experience at Chicago’s Field Museum and the Rochester Museum & Science Center, Delehanty’s Loud Cow Studio fabricates dioramas, replicas, models and murals. In addition to his most recent drawings and sculptures, we discuss the narrative of the natural world, name dropping Freidrich Heinrich Alexander Von Humboldt and Carl Akeley, and discuss some of Delehanty’s upcoming projects with Maria’s Packaged Goods and the state of Vermont.
