Nora Schultz (Performance and Book Release)
@ The Renaissance Society
5811 S Ellis Ave Chicago, IL 60637
Opening Sunday, February 23rd, at 3PM
Performance is an integral part of Nora Schultz’s practice. For her exhibition at the Renaissance Society, Schultz has chosen to conclude the exhibition with a performance in the gallery working with the materials that constitute her installation. The performance will take place at 3pm on February 23, the final day the exhibition will be on view, and is free and open to the public.
The exhibition publication, Nora Schultz: Parrottree, is a unique and ambitious hybrid between exhibition catalog and artist’s book. Along with photo documentation of the Renaissance Society installation and an essay by the curator Solveig Øvstebø, the publication also includes The Parrot Magazine by Nora Schultz, a 64-page magazine “made by parrots for parrots and for all birds that need to integrate into human society under aggravated circumstances.” Additionally, experimental writing pieces by Keren Cytter, Seth Price, and a visual art project by John Kelsey were all commissioned specifically for this book.
