Caleb Lyons: Foreign Interior
@ DIG
2003 N Point, 3, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Saturday, October 16th, from 7PM - 10PM
Caleb J. Lyons‘ artistic practice encompasses a diverse range of activities—directing an exhibition space and a “conceptual artist residency program,” DJing, working collaboratively with other artists, as well as more conventional modes of working such as painting, sculpting, performing and video-making. He investigates abstraction both formally in the work itself and conceptually by addressing the way in which ideas and information can become increasingly mediated or disconnected from reality. His works engage with themes of art history such as abstract painting, landscapes, the still life, and portraiture, and issues of artistic production such as authenticity, originality, and the romantic myth of the artist.
