products art Fresh faces in a range of new spaces Photos by NICK ULIVIERI and courtesy of FAULKNER + LOCKE and JULIE COYLE ART ASSOCIATES By Matt Dougherty Project: Aurélien, Chicago DAC Art Consulting collaborated with Studio K Creative on this high-end housing development in Chicago. The local firm's design scheme exhibits a sense of quiet luxury, so the artwork needed to be bold. "The space is fresh and current," says DAC's art consultant Marilyn Breslin. "The oversized canvas pieces in the lobby [are eye-catching]." Artist Marta Spendowska's works are typically on the smaller side, but "seeing my abstract portraiture in such grandiose scale is an absolute delight," she says. At this size, she adds, the watercolor is allowed to shine, "showing the intuitive nature of the medium."
