Presenting: Art in Chicago: 1995 – 2025 by Gareth Kaye, which explores the evolution of Chicago’s art scene through ephemera and interviews, offering an evolving narrative of the city’s contemporary art history. This program invites viewers to engage with and contribute to the ongoing dialogue about what defines and sustains art in Chicago. @chicagospleen
And in these rough and farcical mirrors, the struggle to recognize a city.
– Lisa Robertson
In lieu of a studio practice, this presentation will foreground Kaye’s work as a critic and art historian researching the central thread that has united his work for the past ten years: who and what makes art in Chicago what it is? Presented as an ongoing rotation of select ephemera, public talks and transcribed interviews, Art In Chicago: 1995 – 2025 aims to assemble an itinerant chorus of Chicago’s contemporary art historical narrative.
This project is dedicated to the memory of Alan Longino, who knew plenty about art and even more about the people who truly love it.
