The Poetics of Haunting: An Evening of Activations

@ Sullivan Galleries

33 S State, 7th fl, Chicago, IL 60603

Opening Friday, December 8th, from 6PM - 8PM

On view through Friday, December 8th

As a closing celebration, eight artists use durational performance, film, and writing to weave themselves into the exhibition “Apichatpong Weerasethakul: The Serenity of Madness.” Join us for this evening of ephemeral encounters, interruptions, and reconfigurations which activate Weerasethakul’s explorations of the materiality of melancholy, the intimacy of the mundane, and the ways bodies remember.

Featuring:
Aram Atamian
reid drake and Jazzy Smith
GREYMAR (Igraine Grey + Jonatan Martinez)
Devyn Lorelei Mañibo
Naoki Nakatani
Julia Sharpe
Selections from the Joan Flasch Artist Book Collection

Curated by Katie Cato, Désirée Coral, and Luna Goldberg, Graduate Curatorial Assistants, Department of Exhibitions and Exhibition Studies

Presented in conjunction with the exhibition “Apichatpong Weerasethakul: The Serenity of Madness” on view at SAIC Sullivan Galleries through December 8. Persons with disabilities requesting accommodations should visit saic.edu/access.
