BEVERLY FRESH: Really Somethin Else: Tour

@ DePaul Art Museum

935 W Fullerton Ave, Chicago, IL 60614

Opening Wednesday, June 6th, from 12PM - 1PM

On view through Sunday, August 5th

DePaul Director and Chief Curator Julie Rodrigues Widholm gives a tour of BEVERLY FRESH: Really Somethin Else, the first solo museum exhibition of multimedia artist, performer and DePaul Professor Zack Ostrowski.

In his first solo museum exhibition in Chicago, artist, musician, and back-road drifter Beverly Fresh takes on the incongruities, social rituals, and archetypes of the rural Midwest. Pulling from age-old performance traditions, juvenile graffiti, backyard debauchery, adult social clubs, amateur living room theater, and pig wrestling, “Really Somethin Else” is a keyed-up regurgitation of rural Midwestern symbols, behaviors, and vernacular. His immersive installations take visitors through peripheral elements of American culture.
