In Progress: Anna Martine Whitehead
@ Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago
220 E Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611
Opening Friday, January 18th, from 6PM - 8PM
Over the run of the exhibition “Groundings,” the performers hold open rehearsals in which they create performances and physical objects that speak to the themes of the exhibition. Informal performances occur at 6 pm on Fridays and will be followed by an opportunity for artists to solicit feedback from assembled participants and audiences.
Anna Martine Whitehead is working on “Notes on Territory,” a performance lecture about architecture and freedom. The formal themes “Territory” investigates are space, surveillance, sound, and light. Whitehead is a Chicago-based artist who uses movement and language to practice escaping planet Earth. Her work has been presented at venues across North America and Europe.
In Progress is a series designed to give patrons a look into the process of artists, thinkers, and curators. The exhibition “Groundings” is organized by Assistant Curator Grace Deveney and Associate Curator of Performance Tara Aisha Willis. It is presented in the Turner Galleries on the museum’s fourth floor
**This event is free with museum admission.**
