While the Rosemont mall has always had art, continuing to add more artwork is an attempt to add more for shoppers to see and do in a climate of increased e-commerce.
Chicago artist Hebru Brantley has brought a new "FlyBoy" mural and a free art exhibit to the Fashion Outlets of Chicago mall in Rosemont .A well-known Chicago artist returned to the Chicago area Friday for the opening of a new exhibit.
"There's a narrative going on but there's also so much more surrounding it, and to do something which I haven't done before with is incorporate a painting with an actual sculpture," Brantley said. "Whether it's husbands who don't want to shop with their wives or families coming to get a little nosh for the kids, but I think they way in which the place is laid out you are drawing on eyes from different sides," Brantley said.
"It creates more, they are going to stay longer, they are going to enjoy their experience here more, and at the end of the day we want to make sure they are coming back," said Katie Walsh with Fashion Outlets of Chicago in Rosemont.
