Cornelia Lein: Things On Shelves
@ LATITUDE Chicago
1821 W Hubbard St, Suite 207, Chicago, IL 60622
Opening Friday, September 29th, from 6PM - 8PM
Join our September artist in residence, Cornelia Lein, for a talk about her current series, Perpetual Inventory of the Self.
This project focuses on three historic doll houses that Lein is employing to address personal, private and exhibition spaces. During her residency, she has been focusing on the Colleen Moore Dollhouse (in the collection of the Museum of Science and Industry) and collecting early warehouse catalogues from the same time period.
During this talk, Lein will be going through her research process, showing what objects she has collected, and sharing a pop-up exhibition of works in progress!
