Micah Schippa: Ugly Human

@ Laura

1535 N Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60622

Opening Saturday, February 11th, from 7PM - 10PM

Villon makes no mention of his legal problems, which most critics cite as the real reason for his departure. Before leaving, he bequeaths his nonexistent or valueless property to his friends and relatives. For instance, he wills his “renown,” which could not have been great at that point, to Guillaume de Villon; his heart, enclosed in a shrine, to his faithless lover; and several tavern signs, such as Le Beuf Couronné (The Crowned Ox), to various friends and acquaintances. To the poorhouses he leaves his window frames draped with cobwebs and to his barber, his hair clippings.
– Works by Micah Schippa

Please join us for the opening reception Saturday, Febuary 11th from 7–10pm. The show will be open by appointment through March 5th.
