MOLDING NEW FUTURES
The Art Institute boasts an impressive Japanese print collection: this winter, it follows up on last year’s “Ghosts and Demons in Japanese Prints” with “By the Light of the Moon: Nighttime in Japanese Prints” (Jan. 20 to April 14). But of its special exhibits on Japanese art, “Radical Clay: Contemporary Women Artists from Japan” is the can’tmiss of the two, its bafflingly intricate pieces by living sculptors on loan to the museum for a limited time. “Radical Clay: Contemporary Women Artists from Japan,” through June 3, open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays and Fridays-Sundays, and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursdays at the Art Institute of Chicago, 111 S. Michigan Ave.; tickets are $32 for adults; $26 for seniors, students and teens; children are free, artic.edu
