Four Seasons Hotel Chicago
 announces the arrival of a unique boutique, Molosco by Laura Letinsky, showcasing exquisite hand-crafted porcelain dinnerware collections in collaboration with Big House Studio. Launching on March 29, 2024, the exquisite boutique curated by Shashi Caudill Photographs + Fine Art will offer guests and visitors an exclusive opportunity to explore and acquire pieces from Laura Letinsky's celebrated collection of handcrafted dinnerware. Each piece in the Molosco collection is meticulously crafted, embodying a perfect balance of form and function. From delicate bowls to elegant plates and cups, every item is designed to enhance the dining experience and elevate the everyday.

Laura Letinsky, an accomplished artist and professor at the University of Chicago, brings her distinct vision to the world of dinnerware with Molosco. Drawing inspiration from the beauty of imperfection, Letinsky's work invites viewers to embrace the astonishment and fragility of life. Through her art, she challenges conventional notions of perfection, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the tactile and sensory experiences that enrich our lives.

Reflecting on her creative process, Letinsky shares, "Making is for me a means to understand and to appreciate the world. Rather than relying on the rapidity of mass-produced objects and images, I find making a way to utilize our senses more fully. My photographs are an invitation to consider one’s physicality as a moving, binocular, sentient being, just as my porcelain dinnerware extends the opportunity to consider the hand and the body, yours, as well as those that made the dish and the food you are enjoying."

In continuation of the collaboration, Chef Richie Farina’s whimsy-filled tasting menu at Adorn Restaurant will be plated on the matte black collection from Letinsky and Molosco, providing guests with an unparalleled dining experience that merges culinary excellence with artistic craftsmanship.

As an additional highlight, Letinsky will unveil an exclusive coral line in celebration of the Hotel's 35th anniversary. This limited-edition collection will pay homage to the Hotel's legacy of luxury and hospitality, offering guests a unique opportunity to own a piece of history.

The boutique on the seventh floor of the Hotel will provide guests with the chance to experience Letinsky's artistry firsthand and to acquire pieces that celebrate the beauty of handmade craftsmanship along with her unique ceramic artworks and photographs. Whether seeking to enhance an in-home dining experience or searching for the perfect gift, guests will find inspiration and delight in the stunning collection.

Discover the artistry of Laura Letinsky and Molosco available on Floor 7 of the Hotel from March 29 through August 2024.
