Spex, one of Chicago's premier destinations for luxury eyewear and sunwear, will be throwing their next “Art+Vision” event with Matt Smith. Famous for his macro photography, Matt helps reveal the extraordinary textures and secret beauty within ordinary flowers in extreme urban environments. The exhibition opens on Wednesday, November 2 from 4-8 pm and run through through December 7. At the opening, shop an incredibly extended selection of French-crafted Lafont frames. Already, Spex collection of Lafont is unrivaled but for this show will be even bigger. [Racked Wire]
