Larry W. Green, a 1975 graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, has put together a dynamic book of digital photographs and paintings depicting water tanks in all their glory. Water Tanks of Chicago: A Vanishing Urban Legacy grew out of one artist s vision as he started to sketch and paint the urban environment in and around Chicago. Green found himself drawn to water tanks as iconic symbols of the city. The tanks were distinctive all by themselves, and an integral part of the city s skyline. As SAIC President Tony Jones, says in his Foreword to the book, Chicago s crumbling water-tanks take on a new significance when seen in Green s paintings surely we knew they were there, they d registered, but they weren t the star of the street-show. But we ve woken up to them, become part of his celebration of them as dynamic incidents in what is clearly a Chicago landscape.
