beLONGING: Lithuanian Artists in Chicago 1900 to Now
@ Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture
6500 S Pulaski Rd, Chicago, IL 60629
On view through Saturday, May 17th
Exploring identity and place through the diverse work, perspectives, and legacy of three immigration periods of Lithuanian artists in Chicago, this exhibition and its associated programs and publications consider the causes and consequences of immigration/migration, including displacement, colonization, trauma, and assimilation. The cost of belonging is choosing what to leave behind. Its reward: creating new connections in this culturally diverse and evolving city.
