A Study in Midwestern Appropriation
@ Hyde Park Art Center
5020 S Cornell Ave., Chicago, IL 60615
Opening Sunday, October 6th, from 3PM - 5PM
On view through Sunday, January 12th
Curated by artist, critic, and Whitney Biennial co-curator Michelle Grabner, ‘A Study in Midwestern Appropriation’ looks at the humorous and self-deprecating works of heartland artists whose output defies notions of artistic ownership. Artists included in the show from Chicago, Milwaukee, and Minneapolis present a range of image and content-borrowing strategies, from the critical to the open-ended, the humorous imitation to the urgent copy.
