If you find yourself in Chicago in the next few months, do yourself a favor and go to the Art Institute. The installation “Paradise Lost” by Raqib Shaw is worth the price of admission on its own, even if you’ve been to the institute many times before.

Opinion | How Math Turned Me From a D.E.I. Skeptic to a Supporter – The New York Times
From article…Opinion, Guest Essay
What I Got Wrong About D.E.I.
Sept. 5, 2025, Listen to this article · 5:32 min
By Eugenia Cheng
Dr. Cheng is the scientist in residence at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
As a woman in the male-dominated field of mathematics, I once opposed targeted efforts to help women succeed — what we now call diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, which are currently facing fierce backlash. I wanted to be judged on the merit of my mathematics alone.
When I was admitted to the University of Cambridge as an undergraduate in math in 1994, I felt that I was a part of a clear minority. I struggled to keep up with some of the men in my class, many of whom had gone to elite boys’ schools where they had intense preparation. Yet I would progress to a Ph.D. and a career as a research mathematician.
As my career has advanced, what I’ve learned is that D.E.I. initiatives helped others see value in my abilities and experience that would have been missed otherwise. And it was through the lens of math that I came to understand this.
Math is not just a way of calculating numerical answers; it is a way of thinking, using clear definitions for concepts and rigorous logic to organize our thoughts and back up our assertions. Numbers can tell us about representation, but they often don’t tell the full story. The percentage of female math graduates in the United States has improved to around 42 percent; however, still less than 18 percent of university professors in mathematics are women. A 50-50 gender split might seem like equality, but not if it was achieved by lowering standards to let more women in. We need to be more careful than that. The nuance found in mathematics can show us a clearer understanding of how to think about equality.
Math is famous for its equations, but equations are more subtle than they first appear. A simple equation like 4 + 1 = 1 + 4 shows not just that two values are equal but also that there are two subtly different ways of adding the same numbers to produce the same result. A similar approach applies to more advanced and complicated forms of math, such as the study of shapes or paths through space. We make choices about how to determine equality.

ProPublica: The Art Institute of Chicago Returned a Sculpture to Nepal But Obscured Its Connection to a Wealthy Donor. “The Art Institute of Chicago announced recently that it had returned to Nepal a sculpture that had been in its collection for at least a quarter century. Conspicuously left out of the press release: that the sculpture had been a gift from a wealthy Chicago donor.”

I really miss going to big art museums like the Milwaukee Art Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago. When we lived in Milwaukee, it was so easy to go to the art museum and just get lost in there, moving from one gallery to the next, soaking in the beauty. It was a wonderful way to spend the day....
From the FB page of The Art Institute of Chicago. Edward Hopper’s birthday was 22 July, 1882.

“I am] very much pleased that you like my 'Nighthawks' well enough to acquire it for the Art Institute. It is, I believe, one of the very best things I have painted."
He wrote the words above in a letter to the director of the museum in 1942, the same year the artist completed "Nighthawks," his most famous work.
