Santina Amato in Conversation with Jeremy Biles

@ Heaven Gallery

1550 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, Illinois, 60622

Opening Sunday, June 24th, from 1PM - 2.30PM

On view through Sunday, June 24th

Please join us for a conversation between artist Santina Amato and scholar Jeremy Biles on Monster, Amato’s first solo exhibition in the US, currently on view at Heaven Gallery.

Amato and Biles will discuss ‘embarrassment’ as a creative force and motivation in transforming the awkwardness of one’s personal life and the unappeasable need to make the private public into works of art available for unrestricted consumption by the public.

The conversation will be followed by a Q&A.

Jeremy Biles, PhD, is the author of Ecce Monstrum: Georges Bataille and the Sacrifice of Form. He teaches at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.
